Fresno State spring-sport athletes receive an additional year of eligibility

Fresno State student athletes in spring programs are receiving another year of eligibility.

The NCAA Division I Council announced today that they approved a measure to allow an additional season of competition and an extension of their period of eligibility for spring-sport student athletes.

Grace Calhoun, athletics director at Penn said. “The Board of Governors encouraged conferences and schools to take action in the best interest of student-athletes and their communities, and now schools have the opportunity to do that.
