Old Dominion University, which is in the same athletic conference as WKU, announced in a statement on Monday that they are cancelling their upcoming fall sports season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The WKU football team was scheduled to play ODU’s squad for the Homecoming game on Oct. 31. WKU Athletics spokesman Zach Greenwell said in an email that WKU does not have an update about the status of the game at this time, but WKU and Conference USA will provide updates as soon as they are available.
According to ODU’s statement, the Monarchs are the 14th school in the Football Bowl Subdivision to announce the cancellation of its football season.
