The Horizon League Council announced Thursday that the start of fall competition for all sports, including championship and non-championship, will be delayed. 

This decision will allow campuses to focus on competition protocols while upholding the Council’s principle of safety. 

Decisions to continue training and practice will be left to members’ discretion. Rescheduling non-conference contests will be determined by each school.
