MIAA CANCELS 2008 VOLLEYBALL TOURNAMENT

The Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association announced Saturday that it has canceled the MIAA volleyball tournament, which had initially been postponed until Tuesday, Nov. 11.

Commissioner David Neilson announced the cancellation after consulting with the NCAA, which had initially allowed an exception to its requirement that the MIAA’s automatic qualifier be determined by Sunday’s deadline. After revisiting the matter, the NCAA determined that the MIAA must abide by the original timeline.

“As a result of the virus at Hope College, which has now led to the cancellation of the tournament, as per written policy, the automatic qualifier is awarded to the regular season champion, Hope College,” Neilson said.

The NCAA is expected to announce its pairings for the Division III volleyball tournament on Sunday, Nov. 9.
