Rock Hill, S.C.—-The South Atlantic Conference Presidents Council has made the decision that due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and in the best interest of the health, safety, and well-being of the student-athletes, coaches, administrators, fans and campus communities, the start of fall sports will be delayed. All scheduled competition for the 2020 fall sports seasons has been pushed back to Sept. 26. This includes men's and women's cross country, football, men's and women's soccer and volleyball. Further, teams will compete in conference-only competition and teams may begin preseason practice, per NCAA bylaws, for these sports during the fall 2020 semester, provided health and safety conditions allow these activities.
