NCAA Statement on Hurricane Sandy

“The NCAA is actively working with member institutions in the wide path of Hurricane Sandy to ensure that the needs of student-athletes are met before, during and after the storm. Our top priority is the safety of our student-athletes and staff at our member institutions, and we stand ready to assist as needed. During natural disasters, the NCAA routinely gives flexibility to institutions and conferences to help them quickly provide necessary assistance and resources that may include meals or other benefits, relocating teams and rescheduling games. We stand ready to do so today and as the storm continues ashore.”
