Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf said professional sports teams can resume playing and practicing in the state in the "yellow" or "green" stages of reopening amid the coronavirus pandemic.

"No fans or spectators may be permitted on interior or exterior venue property," Wolf said in a release.

Pennsylvania will require sports leagues to provide a safety plan that is approved by the state Health Department. The state defines professional sports as "any sporting event at which the participants are paid by a league or team, or at which individuals or teams receive prizes or purse."

This would seemingly eliminate college sports.
