There will be no football in the fall of 2020 for the Ivy League.
The conference made the decision Wednesday to not play any fall sports as scheduled, becoming the first Division I league to make such a move. In addition, no sports of any kind will be played before Jan. 1. That affects winter sports like basketball from starting their seasons during 2020.
“As a leadership group, we have a responsibility to make decisions that are in the best interest of the students who attend our institutions, as well as the faculty and staff who work at our schools,” the league said in a statement.
