Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the future of the 2020 college baseball season - and the seasons of all spring sports - became unclear. On March 30, the NCAA canceled the upcoming College World Series,[2] but announced that senior spring athletes would have the opportunity to return to school for the 2021 spring season if they wished.[3]
