The Eastern Connecticut Conference announced Monday it will not allow fans to attend any winter sporting events the rest of the season, but will consider changing its policy for the spring season.
Gary Makowicki, commissioner of the ECC, released the following statement:
"The Eastern Connecticut Conference board of control agreed to maintain the current policy to not allow spectators at all winter events through the end of the winter season. This decision is aligned with both the CIAC and the DPH's continued recommendation to not allow spectators.
"This decision also demonstrates the league's commitment to ensuring the safety and well being for the student-athletes, coaches and officials. The board of directors will revisit the policy for the spring season."
