BLOOMINGTON, Minn. – The Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) announced today that non-conference contests are cancelled for the 2020 fall sports season. More changes could be made in the future, as Presidents and Athletic Directors continue to explore opportunities for the fall.
“MIAC administrators and staff have met weekly throughout the summer to develop protocols, expectations, and best practices for the possible return of athletics this fall,” the MIAC release stated. “With new information and guidelines being shared by the NCAA and public health officials regularly, the conference will continue to evaluate options over the next several weeks before making a final decision on how and when athletics will return to MIAC campuses.”
Carleton College recently announced that it has cancelled fall sports in 2020, leaving 12 MIAC-member schools to compete against each other. With the shift to a conference-only schedule this fall, here is how the Gustavus athletics calendar looks as of today:
