NCAA Cancels Remaining Winter, Spring Championships

The NCAA cancelled all remaining winter and spring championships on Wednesday due to the COVID-19 public health threat.

This will include next week’s men’s and women’s basketball tournaments; NCAA Men’s and Women’s Rifle Championships and Zone C Diving Championships set to take place at UK this weekend; and the track and field, swimming and diving gymnastics, men’s golf, women’s golf, men’s tennis, women’s tennis, softball and baseball championships in which University of Kentucky teams were eligible to compete.

Here is a release from UK:

LEXINGTON, Ky. – The NCAA cancelled all remaining winter and spring championships on Wednesday, making the decision based on the evolving COVID-19 public health threat, the ability to ensure the events do not contribute to spread of the pandemic, and the impracticality of hosting such events at any time during this academic year given ongoing decisions by other entities.
