Ohio State Self-Imposes Postseason Bans for Women's Basketball, Women's Golf and Fencing

Ohio State has self-imposed postseason bans for three of its varsity sports teams due to NCAA infractions.

Ohio State's women's basketball, women's golf and fencing teams will all be unable to participate in postseason competition for the 2020-21 season as part of self-imposed sanctions by the university in response to an investigation by the NCAA into those programs, the university confirmed in a statement on Tuesday.

“The Ohio State University Department of Athletics is currently working cooperatively with the NCAA Enforcement Staff on an infractions case involving three sports programs: fencing, women’s golf and women’s basketball,” the statement said.
