Historic reform plan in college soccer nears final NCAA vote after 7 years of work

>>In April, the NCAA will vote on a proposal by Maryland coach Sasho Cirovski to change Division I men’s soccer from a three-month fall season to a campaign spanning both semesters of the academic year, beginning in 2022. The number of games would drop from 25 to 23, the fall half-season would end at Thanksgiving, and the national championship tournament would move to the spring.

Cirovski has been leading the campaign for seven years and has many supporters. He has backing from a raft of coaches and formal endorsements from college soccer’s three biggest conferences: the Big Ten, Atlantic Coast Conference and Pac-12.<<

>>The Inquirer polled the five conferences with Philadelphia schools — the Big East, American Athletic Conference, Atlantic 10, Colonial Athletic Association, and Ivy League The A-10 said it will vote yes, the Ivy League said it will vote no, and the other three said they haven’t decided.<<

Just to clarify. Currently teams can only play 20 regular season fall games. The number rises to 25 only because of five spring practice games.
