Perhaps a baseball game. Baseball and soccer cannot be played at the same time due to the proximity and possibility of foul balls entering the soccer stadium.

Z.I.P. Posted January 18, 2021 Report Share Posted January 18, 2021 Would be very interested in finding out which other conferences are planning to compete in the spring, after the Big West preemptively canceled all their fall sports for the year. How about women's soccer? And will any other sports revert to spring (e.g., volleyball)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would make for an interesting "double header". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z.I.P. Posted January 27, 2021 Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 What about AFTER this schedule? There's no MAC Tournament indicated... or NCAA Tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zip_ME87 Posted January 27, 2021 Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 No MAC Tourney. Regular season champ gets conference auto bid to NCAA Tourney per previous announcements, 2020 Men's College Cup Info (May 2021, Cary, NC) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spin Posted January 27, 2021 Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 If this works out and becomes the new norm, the playoffs could be played in nice weather, and the College Cup could be played anywhere there was a reasonable bid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
