The state did not release plans for college sports but said it wouls use the pro sports plan to analyze how it can be applied to college.

Will L.A. County enter the moderate tier during November-December?

Pac-12 football supervisor Merton Hanks said today on the John Canzano radio show that he believes the conference could "lose some games" to COVID-19.

Merton Hanks on Pac-12 football season:

“To assume that we’re going to get every single game in is unrealistic with the times… we’re going to lose some games. I do think it’s important for the teams that play games show who we are."
