LSU Athletics Director Scott Woodward is assuring Tiger fans that everyone will be back together again in due time, but the most important thing is the collective effort to stop the spread of COVID-19. Woodward says there are still many unknowns revolving around how this could impact fall sports.
“Obviously, the championships for our spring sports are concluded, so it is going to be how we can get up and and prepare for our fall sports. That is in flux and it is being discussed,” said Woodward.
Woodward says there are about 120 student athletes remaining on campus, but that number is dropping.
“We’re taking counts and trying to see how we can take care of them and we obviously will. It’s a moving number and it’ll continue to go down,” said Woodward.
Woodward says the financial impact of sports cancellations are not a concern, adding that ticket holders will see money coming back for games that were not played, it just may take a little time.
“A lot of things are being interrupted right now and there is a lot of people doing a lot of different things but for the seasons that have been cancelled, we will refund your ticket,” said Woodward.
