MAC Men's and Women's Soccer

[Mark T. DeNucci, Sr.]

The Mid-American Conference dropped a bomb shell yesterday afternoon. Starting with the 2020-21 school year the MAC will not have a post-season championship tournaments in baseball, softball, men's and women's soccer and tennis, women's lacrosse, and field hockey. The post-season tournaments in these sports will not resume any sooner that the 2024-25 school year. The decision was made due to the financial situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The MAC also announced that changes will be made in the men's and women's basketball and women's volleyball post-season championship tournaments.

If that implies that MAC colleges will play the regular season, that's better than our local HS leagues. PA officials have said that they anticipate schools opening for the fall, but no word yet about sports (and, presumably, other extracurricular activities).

Incidentally, MTD, I remember Butch Komives, playing for BGSU, leading the nation in scoring and then playing for the Knicks, but, oddly, I do not recall Nate Thurmond, whose time at BGSU overlapped with Komives'. Must be because I was a guard.
