The sports world came to an abrupt halt March 11. Many teams and leagues had already announced games would be played without fans due to the COVID-19 outbreak. It wasn’t until the NBA — after two athletes tested positive for the virus — announced the indefinite suspension of its season that the impact the novel virus has on sports really hit home.
In the days following, other major leagues — including the NHL and MLB — suspended their seasons. March is usually a big month for sports fans with the NCAA Tournament, but this year it’s not happening.
