No-contact sports at BGSU optimistic for fall season

BOWLING GREEN — Among no-contact outdoor sports, there is optimism some type of fall season can take place, though moving the schedule ahead would face a litany of complex variables.

Last week, Bowling Green State University director of athletics Bob Moosbrugger said he believed there could be some fall sports during the pandemic, and pointed to low-risk sports like golf and tennis playing and possibly even moving their seasons ahead.

While golf has seen minor changes — such as no tending the flagstick, no bunker rakes, and skipping handshakes on the 18th green — the game already featured plenty of space and minimal interaction between competitors.
