Amid concerns regarding COVID-19, the Southeastern Conference has canceled play for all remaining winter and spring sports.
This includes out-of conference contests, SEC championship tournaments, and each school’s spring football scrimmage. No football program will host a pro day for its NFL prospects.
Conference commissioner Greg Sankey made the necessary decision. It just makes everything else seem even worse somehow.
“This is a difficult day for all of us, and I am especially disappointed for our student athletes. The health and well-being of our entire conference community is an ongoing priority for the SEC as we continue to monitor developments and information about the COVID-19 virus.
