The NCAA announced that starting June 1, student-athletes are permitted for voluntary on-campus workouts. Here’s what that means for the Syracuse Orange.

This vote was directed solely at football and men’s and women’s basketball players, as they are usually the first athletes on campus during the summer. This news is a huge step forward, as collegiate athletics have practically been shut down for over two months due to Covid-19.

It comes amid concerns over the possibilities of having fall sports seasons in 2020. However, with NASCAR already resumed, the PGA Tour starting play back up on June 11, and both the MLB and NBA seemingly very close to finalizing plans to play, it has become laid light on the fact that college sports could still go on.
