That's the Patriot league. They are following the Ivy League in cancelling FB this fall.

What happened to the link in my first post for the article?

Patriot League cancels fall sports; Army and Navy are exempt

https://www.detroitnews.com/story/s...-fall-sports-army-and-navy-exempt/5428821002/



The Patriot League has joined the Ivy League in canceling fall sports, including football, because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Division I conference says it has still not determined whether winter and spring sports competition will be held and that it will consider holding fall sports in the second semester. The Ivy League made a similar announcement last week. The Patriot League is the first conference in the Football Championship Subdivision that competes in the Football Bowl Subdivision’s playoffs to suspend its season.

Army and Navy compete in the Patriot League in many sports, including basketball, but not in football. The Patriot League said Army and Navy are exempt from the fall sports cancellation, which also includes women’s soccer and volleyball.

Athletes will be permitted to practice and train with coaches and in team facilities “provided health and safety conditions support such activities,” the conference said.

There are 10 members of the Patriot League: American University, Army, Boston University, Bucknell, Colgate, Holy Cross, Lafayette, Lehigh, Loyola Maryland and Navy.

Allen, do you have to be a gold member to post links? My link was from Yahoo Sports. I used the link button above and didn't work.
Let me try it again....

No you don't have to be a gold member.

I usually Highlight the link and paste it on the board.

I used the Link button with this one

As you can see neither one worked. Might have something to do with yahoo.
