WMU soccer coaches weighing positives and negatives of potential spring season

WMU soccer is trying to figure out how to move forward in a fall without sports.

Normally, both the men’s and women’s teams would be starting their seasons right now, as both teams had played games in August in 2019. Instead, they’re hoping and preparing for a spring season that will be very new for players and coaches.
