Update on Hood College winter competition

FREDERICK, Md. – In response to the Middle Atlantic Conference's decision to move forward with the 2020-21 winter athletics season, Hood College announced today that it will opt out of the MAC men's and women's basketball seasons. This decision was based on the recommendations of the public health experts from the Frederick County Health Department and Frederick Health, as well as the College's COVID Emergency Response Team (CERT) and Board of Trustees. At this time, the plan is for track and field to begin practicing for their outdoor spring season and swimming to compete within the MAC beginning in mid-March.
