NCAA to give spring athletes extra year of eligibility
The NCAA on Monday voted to allow Division I spring-sport athletes who had their seasons shortened by the coronavirus pandemic to have an additional year of eligibility. The extra year of eligibility will be granted to all spring-sport athletes, regardless of their current class.
The decision does not guarantee current seniors will still receive financial aid if they return for the extra year, according to The Associated Press.
Winter sports, such as basketball, were not included in the decision. Although the winter season was cut short — basketball conference tournaments and the NCAA men's and women's basketball tournaments were notably suspended or canceled — the NCAA Division I Council excluded those sports because athletes had completed most or all of the regular seasons.

Good deal. Too bad nothing can be done for the hs athletes who will never get this season back.
