Athletics department staff and student-athletes will continue to align with the broader institutional policy for return. In addition, the NCAA and ASUN Conference policies will be followed by our athletic staff and student-athletes for competition.
Further, consistent with the NCAA Constitution Bylaw 3.2.4.19, the institution’s medical staff must have unchallengeable autonomous authority to determine medical management and return-to-play decisions related to student-athletes.
