Consistent with TCNJ's 2020 Fall Restart Plan (found here), TCNJ has canceled the Fall 2020 season for high-risk fall sports and for the fall segment of high-risk winter sports. This means that football, men's and women's soccer, field hockey, wrestling, and men's and women's basketball will not participate in intercollegiate competition for the fall season.

Low risk sports (cross-country, tennis) will resume play during the fall following resocialization guidelines and protocols. Competition will be limited and is pending NJAC decisions regarding conference play. Practice start dates have not yet been determined. All student-athletes will return to campus with the general student body.

TCNJ is planning for winter sports to begin phase 1 resocialization in the fall semester, with variations for high risk (wrestling), medium risk (basketball) and low risk sports (swimming, indoor track & field). A decision about entering other phases and whether competition will return after winter break will be determined at a later date during the fall semester.

A decision about spring sports will be made prior to the start of the spring semester.  Limited fall skill workouts and conditioning for spring sports will be permitted following established resocialization guidelines with variations medium risk (lacrosse, baseball, softball) and low risk sports (tennis, track & field).
