The National Junior College Athletic Association has announced a change related to eligibility for the 2020-21 seasons.
The NJCAA said Thursday all 2020-21 sport seasons – whether fall, winter or spring – will not count towards student-athlete eligibility. The change follows a vote by its Board of Regents.
"The Board of Regents feels this decision is best for the success and well-being of our student-athletes and member colleges at this time,"
