Tim McMurray, Texas A&M-Commerce athleticdirector, says fall sports teams -- including football -- will play a half schedule in the spring 2021 semester. This follows the decision of the Lone Star Conferece to call off competition in football, volleyball and soccer in the fall 2020 season, at least partly because the NCAA Division IIdecided to have national championship playoffs in the fall sports. Cross country will compete as ususal in the fall.
