Ivy League rules out playing all sports this fall
The Ivy League has ruled out playing all sports this fall, executive director Robin Harris told ESPN on Wednesday, marking the first Division I conference to say it will not hold sports this fall amid the coronavirus pandemic.
No decision has been made about winter or spring sports or whether fall sports could be played in the spring of 2021.
Student-athletes will be allowed to practice on campus, in modified form.
This was a highly anticipated decision throughout the world of college athletics, as athletic directors and commissioners at every level told ESPN this week they would be monitoring the news out of Princeton, New Jersey.
