NSIC ANNOUNCES SINGLE-GAME, GENDER SITE SCHEDULE DUE TO COVID-19 FOR 2021 SEASON Friday, November 13, 2020 BURNSVILLE, Minn. – The NSIC has announced its basketball and wrestling schedules for the 2020-21 academ- ic year. The schedules were approved by the NSIC Board of Directors with the health and safety of student-ath- letes, coaches, and staff as the top priority. Both the basketball and wrestling schedules will begin in January and schools will follow NCAA Sports Science Institute (SSI) guidelines for competition. To mitigate COVID-19 exposure, schools will only compete against one opponent each week of the sea- son. The NSIC Men’s and Women’s Basketball schedules will be 16-games played over 8 weeks with teams playing the same opponent at one site on back-to-back days. The season will start with two non-conference games against one NSIC out-of-division opponent. The conference schedule will then consist of 14 games with teams playing each member of its division twice. For this season, the NSIC will only crown a North Division and South Division Champion. For the winter sports of men's and women's indoor track & field and women's swimming & diving that do not operate under a conference schedule, schools will continue with the development of their schedules and with competition beginning in January. The conference will continue to monitor the landscape and conditions surrounding the pandemic, locally, regionally, and nationally, and make any decisions or announcements, at a later date, as necessary. 2021 WAYNE STATE COLLEGE MEN'S BASKETBALL SCHEDULE Date Opponent Time Jan. 2 (Sat.)
