Atlantic East Cancels 2020 Spring Season and Championships
Lancaster, Pa. – With the safety and well-being of our students and campus communities being paramount, and the rapid and evolving nature of COVID 19, the Atlantic East Conference, with unanimous support from the Presidents Council, made the difficult decision to cancel the remaining 2020 spring season and championships, effectively immediately.
We recognize the disappointment that this decision will bring to our student-athletes, families and fans; however, with the new CDC recommendations and ever-changing local, state and national restrictions, we felt it was in the best interest of our student-athletes, campus support staff and local communities.
