Cleveland, Ohio – On February 22, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy announced a plan to allow limited spectators at professional and collegiate athletic contests. Since that time, the Mid-American Conference and Rider University (host of the 2021 MAC Wrestling Championships) have evaluated the feasibility of allowing limited spectators, primarily the parents and guardians of the competitors, to attend the 2021 MAC Wrestling Championships that will take place at the Cure Insurance Arena in Trenton, NJ on February 26 and 27.
Although the Mid-American Conference and Rider University would like to be able to provide this opportunity for spectators, maintaining a secure competition environment to ensure the health and safety of all participating teams, student-athletes, and the residents of the State of New Jersey remains our first priority.
