NORMAL, Ill. – In accordance with action taken by the Missouri Valley Conference on Thursday, Illinois State Athletics spring sports contests have been suspended through March 30, effective immediately.
This does not apply to individuals currently participating in NCAA sanctioned competition. In addition, Illinois State teams currently on the road competing over spring break will be allowed to participate in scheduled contests if the host institution does not cancel the event. Those teams will return at regularly-scheduled times and adhere to all department policies moving forward.
"The health, safety and well-being of our student-athletes, coaches, staff, and University community is at the heart of the decisions made today," Illinois State Director of Athletics Larry Lyons said.
