The NCAA Board of Governors met on Tuesday to discuss plans for its fall championships, as well as other items. After more than six hours meeting they held off on making any major decisions in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic.
The board is mainly comprised of university presidents representing all three divisions.
NCAA President Mark Emmert released a statement Tuesday night announcing they would push ‘an update’ to Wednesday.
“The board of governors and I today continued our discussion about the NCAA’s ability to proceed with our 22 fall championships in light of the COVID-19 trend lines,” Emmert said in a post on Twitter. “In order to ensure the health and well-being of college athletes, we have to consider all the implications when determining our next steps, and we plan to provide an update to our membership and the public tomorrow.”
