WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (Tribe Athletics) - In accordance with the Colonial Athletic Association [caasports.com], William & Mary Athletics has canceled all competitions for the remainder of the winter and spring sports seasons in an effort to help slow the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19).

All athletics related activities remain suspended until further notice. In alignment with the CAA, W&M has indefinitely suspended all in-person, on- and off-campus recruiting.

All athletics facilities at William & Mary are closed to the public until further notice.

The current focus of the Athletics Department is ensuring all our student-athletes are in safe and secure locations. Moving forward, it will base all decisions around the four main goals of the university: safeguarding the heath of students, staff and community; ensuring students complete their classes; maintaining the university's basic operations; and joining in the national effort to slow the spread of COVID-19.

W&M Athletics will continue to monitor developments and make changes as warranted with updates shared on TribeAthletics.com and via social media channels.

The university's response and the latest updates are available at WM.edu [wm.edu].
