The NCAA has officially cancelled the men’s and women’s NCAA Tournaments. In addition, all winter and spring championships in other sports have been cancelled.
First, the NCAA decided no fans would be allowed at NCAA Tournament games. Then came the cancellation of conference tournaments.
The NCAA did not have much of a choice, given what other leagues have done, and the measures taken by certain states throughout the country.
Mark Emmert used the word “cancelled,” so it may be difficult to plan a whole new tournament when no one knows how long the coronavirus hysteria will last.
