South Atlantic Conference Announces Cancelation of 2021 Indoor Track & Field Championships

ROCK HILL, S.C. (TheSAC.com) – The South Atlantic Conference announced today the cancellation of the 2021 SAC Indoor Track & Field Championships. The event was scheduled for Feb. 25-26 at JDL Fast Track in Winston-Salem, N.C., but the facility informed the conference earlier this month it has canceled all events for the foreseeable future.

After extensive research into finding a new location for this year's event, the SAC Athletics Council and Presidents Council determined that canceling the championship was the best course of action and was the most prudent course of action to ensure the health and safety of all student-athletes.

"We regret having to make the very difficult decision to cancel the SAC Indoor Track & Field Championships," said SAC Commissioner Patrick Britz. "The South Atlantic Conference and its member institutions are committed to providing our student-athletes with as many opportunities to compete in their respective sports as possible, but, unfortunately, circumstances that were completely out of our control have prevented us from being able to conduct a safe and quality championship experience this year. We look forward to having all of our track & field student-athletes competing in the upcoming SAC Outdoor Track & Field Championships later this spring." 

The SAC will move forward with plans to host the 2021 Outdoor Track & Field Championships at Lenoir-Rhyne University April 24-25.
