UPDATED: CCC Cancels All Spring Sports Effective Immediately
CORVALLIS, Ore. – With the announcement by the NAIA canceling all spring sports, as well as the updated CDC recommendations that all events of 50 or more people be canceled at a minimum the next eight weeks, the CCC is canceling all competitions for the remainder of the academic year.
The NAIA has sent out a clarification that the cancelation of spring sports includes practices on all NAIA campuses for all sports.
"While this is certainly disappointing news for all of our student-athletes in the CCC and the entire NAIA, unprecedented circumstances require unprecedented decisions," stated CCC Commissioner Robert Cashell. "We will, as a conference give everyone an opportunity to turn their full attention to their campus as they determine the best steps forward to ensure the health and well-being of the entire campus community."
In the NAIA announcement they also addressed eligibility stating that in an effort to provide relief, no spring sport student-athlete will be charged a season of competition. Any spring sport student-athlete who was enrolled full-time in 2020 will be awarded two additional semester terms of attendance or the equivalent.
