Atlantic University Sport issued a release stating the governing body is committed to finding a pathway to return to AUS competition as soon as it is safe to do so.
In light of the current public health restrictions across Atlantic Canada, the AUS and its member schools are working towards a goal of resuming play by mid-February, pending provincial health authority and institutional approvals.
The release stated the AUS is taking a flexible and creative approach to exploring every possible option, which may include a variety of scheduling solutions, with a focus on AUS regular season and championship competition.
