New NCAA rule grants Aztec baseball players another year of eligibility

San Diego State baseball players look towards the field from the dugout during the Aztecs' 4-1 win over Iowa on Feb. 21 at Tony Gwynn Stadium.

Eligibility relief will be provided by the NCAA for spring student-athletes who had their season canceled as part of precautions taken amid the outbreak of the coronavirus, the NCAA announced Friday.

“Council leadership agreed that eligibility relief is appropriate for all Division I student-athletes who participated in spring sports,” a statement by the NCAA said.

The waiver could provide San Diego State baseball players another year of eligibility after their season was canceled Thursday morning.
