The Mississippi University for Women's Athletic Department has officially gained full membership in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division III.
To accurately follow these recommendations set by the governing officials, Owls Athletics has chosen to cease competition for the Fall 2020 semester. Although competitions will not be happening, teams are permitted to practice following the NCAA guidelines for social distancing and testing.
All Mississippi University for Women sports have been canceled for the remainder of the spring semester because of the outbreak of the new coronavirus COVID-19.
There are a number of students at The W who are competing in more than one sport. For both the athletes and their coaches, time management is one of the challenges they face each day.
This semester continued that success, as both the men’s and women’s soccer and cross country teams participated in the United States College Athletic Association championship tournaments.
This semester has been one of growth for the Owls Athletic programs. From championship highs to learning how to deal with personal loss, the Owls have demonstrated their motto of striving to win every day.
