Yeah, lots of college football and basketball games have been played, postponed, and cancelled over the last few months. Intercollegiate sports are doing well overall now and at some point this year or next HC will rejoin the athletic landscape.

Seven out of 11 Men's Hockey East squads are either shutdown or had a game canceled within 24 hours of face-off in the first two weekends. Women's Hockey East has four programs shutdown out of ten. Florida State football for the second straight week had a game PPD the day of. There was 18 college football games canceled this weekend. |

Intercollegiate sports are doing well overall now and at some point this year or next HC will rejoin the athletic landscape. #undefeatedandunscoredupon Time to get on the court and rink. It's unfathomable to me that some teams are playing and others are not. Does anybody ever care about how the athletes feel? I am talking to you IVY and MASCAC. You can only hide for so long behind your statements that "we exhausted all avenues to play." How could that possibly be the case when SCHOOLS ACROSS THE COUNTRY ARE PLAYING FOOTBALL! Break it down to one thing, neither conference cares about athletics. If they did they would find a way to play. (Like every other conference) The teams should say we are done with these conferences. They don't care about us? Who are they to be making these decisions? Are they experts?
Maybe I am overreacting, but I just want sports back.

Given the pandemic and protocols, the only surprise is that anyone is surprised to see competitions go off as planned or go off after postponement or get cancelled. We’ll continue to see all three. As expected. At some point HC will participate in hoops and football. Some of our games will go off as planned, some may be postponed, and some may be cancelled. That’s fine. And that is the expectation. Till then, we are #undefeatedandunscoredupon |

For the sake of playing devil's advocate. . . When you get away from the semi-pro power conferences, how do you justify playing sports if all of your students aren't on campus? This cuts two ways. On one hand, if school a school can't be fully open because of concern about student safety, what does it say about the safety of athletes. On the other hand, at a serious academic institution, where athletes are representative of the overall student body, the ability to actually be on campus is a special privilege. Just a bit of devil's advocate |

Just a bit of devil's advocate I understand but I do think the students should be in school as well. I think the online learning thing is failure for the most part across the board. At any level in education. |

I too find it frustrating to be watching other schools playing while our guys sit it out....but I can't help but think of all those doctors and nurses out there right now that are probably wishing they could just string together a couple of days off.  |

We could have scheduled some OOC games in December. The athletes are on campus, I am enjoying watching the games that are on TV, but I do miss not seeing HC play.

I feel the same, but perhaps this extra time of preparation and practice will help when HC games start THIS WEEK!  |
