NCAA President announces no fall championships

The NCAA President Mark Emmert announced Thursday via Twitter that there would not be fall championships. However, this does not impact the football subdivision and WKU football.

As for Lady Topper soccer and volleyball, Emmert would intend for these programs to hold championships in the spring — although nothing is official from WKU Athletics yet other than what Emmert has stated.

Emmert joined NCAA digital reporter Andy Katz for episode 21 of the NCAA’s Looking Ahead series following the announcement.
