Message from Temple University Director of Athletics Dr. Patrick Kraft

Members of the Temple University Athletics Community,

I want to reach out to provide you with an update regarding Temple Athletics in light of the ongoing national emergency.

As you may know, the University's decided to limit in-person operations on March 13 due to concerns over the recent spread of the COVID-19. As for athletics, we have put in place a mandatory shutdown for all practices so our student-athletes can travel home to their families. We do not expect a resumption of our varsity sports programs until after the spring semester has been completed.
