Besides setting the start date for the NCAA basketball season, the NCAA DI Council on Wednesday also made recommendations on the championship schedule for the remaining fall sports that have been postponed. They recommended that all fall sports championships take place in the spring, but at just 75% capacity of usual. These recommendations will need to be approved by the full NCAA Division I Board of Directors to be put into place. For the Minnesota Golden Gophers, these changes will affect four sports—men’s and women’s cross-country, women’s soccer and volleyball.
Volleyball is the sport that the NCAA Tournament chances will be the most pertinent to the Gophers.
