NEW YORK -- Consistent with the commitment to safeguard the health and well-being of students, staff and faculty, the City University of New York Athletic Conference (CUNYAC) has once again made the difficult decision to cancel intercollegiate athletic competition in spring sports for the 2020-2021 season. Our decision was informed by ongoing deliberations among the CUNY Athletic Conference, the Presidents Council, and Athletic Directors about the risks of a spring season. We considered and weighed options and strategies for a safe return to play but due to the uncertainty of the pandemic and our obligation to follow all City, State, NCAA and NJCAA guidelines, as well as the University's reopening guidelines, it remained clear that unresolved logistical issues continue to affect the ability to hold CUNYAC competition.

This decision impacts the City College of New York's men's and women's outdoor track and field, men's volleyball, baseball and lacrosse.

As a result, CUNYAC Championships will not be held in men's and women's outdoor track and field, baseball or men's volleyball.

The Department of Athletics will continue to support the student-athlete population on a virtual platform and looks forward to engaging students in-person when able to safely do so.
