The Pac-12 has decided to postpone all of its fall sports until next spring at the earliest. The conference announced its decision at a press conference earlier today. The move comes shortly after the Big 10 announced they were not going forward with fall sports.
The full report on the Pac-12’s decision can be read here. To briefly summarize, the Pac-12’s believes that the Covid-19 virus’s footprint is still too high in areas the Pac-12’s operates in; that information about Covid-19’s long term health impact is still coming to light, particularly in regards to cardiovascular damage; and that the infrastructure is not in place for the frequent testing and rapid turnaround the conference would need to compete safely.
