NIC To Move Forward Without Spectators

Based on recommendations provided by the State of Ohio, spectators will not be permitted to attend the National Invitational Championship (NIC) at Cleveland State University.  Although no cases of coronavirus have been detected on the University campus, the decision to not admit spectators is a preventive effort that aims to minimize the potential for exposure.  

The Championship will otherwise proceed as scheduled with competition beginning at 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, March 12.  Spectators who had purchased tickets in advance will receive refunds through the Cleveland State box office.  The meet will now be streamed online at www.cscaa.org.   

Additionally, for those parents and fans who made it to Cleveland, there will be a NIC Watch Party at Masthead Brewing Company, 1261 Superior Ave, Cleveland, OH 44114.
