Program Update
Message From Athletic Director, Jeff Cassella
1. Fall athletes grades are still determined on the last grading period grades. Make sure you are touching base with your teams so that the students know that these 4th quarter online grades will determine their eligibility in the fall.
2. CCP classes remain the same. Even if the college goes to a pass fail system they will count towards eligibility.
3. Spring sports are still on hold. They are exploring their options on an abbreviated spring season. No face to face contact until after May 1 for now.
4. Off season (June/July) may need to be adjusted depending on what happens with spring.
5. Continue to be supportive with your athletes and stress the importance of staying home and following the directives we have been given.
