Women’s basketball reacts to NCAA announcement regarding 2020-21 season start date

After months of uncertainty, the NCAA announced Nov. 25 will be the official start date for the women and men’s basketball 2020-21 season.

San Diego State women’s basketball head coach Stacie Terry-Hutson said she had been hopeful about having a season.

“I was just really excited to have a season — I should say, appreciative to have a season,” Terry-Hutson said.

The season will start around the Thanksgiving holiday, when most college campuses will be at a low capacity.

“What I like about the Nov. 25 start date, I like the thought process of starting to play those games when we have less students on campus only because the (COVID-19) transmission rate gets lower,” Terry-Hutson said.
