SEATTLE, Wash.---The 2021 MPSF Indoor Track and Field Championships have officially been cancelled due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the conference announced earlier this week. The University of Portland is a member of the MPSF in both men's and women's indoor track & field.
With the news of the MPSF cancellation, UP Athletics has announced it will not host or travel to any full team indoor track & field competitions for the 2021 season. The Department will, however, still evaluate individual competition opportunities for student athletes if conditions permit.
"We fully support this decision because the safety of our student-athletes is our top priority," University of Portland Vice President for Athletics Scott Leykam said.
