Announcement on Fall Semester Athletic Competition

Dr. William J. Brennan, President of Maine Maritime Academy (MMA), announced today that the Mariners will not compete in intercollegiate athletics during the Fall 2020 semester. The decision to cancel competition was made after undertaking considerable discussions among staff and in consultation with the Mariners' team physician and partners in the North Atlantic (NAC) and the New England Men’s and Women’s Athletic Conferences (NEWMAC). Athletic-associated travel and competition presented a serious enough risk to the Academy’s ability to deliver its core educational mission to warrant cancellation.
