Men’s 2020 Season Cancelled
| Torch Men’s 2020 season comes to an end even before it starts. The NPSL announced on Wednesday their decision to cancel the season in light of the covid-19 epidemic.
“Earlier this week, USASA has extended its ban on soccer activity until April 30, and the CDC last week has recommended there be no group activities for eight weeks, which coordinates with May 10. Given these circumstances, the 2020 NPSL summer season, under its current competition structure, has been cancelled. This decision was made unanimously by our Board of Directors” (Kenneth Farrell, NPSL Chairman of the Board). “It is disappointing because I really believe we were going to be a very strong team. We had a lot of returning players and the recruitment effort was bringing in a lot of international talent. My biggest disappointment, however, is the missed out on opportunity to invest in those young men and watch God impact their lives. But the Lord knows what He is doing and we trust His plan” (Rich Sparling, Torch Men’s Head Coach). |
