UA Wayne Warrior athletics are suspended through Fall Semester 2022

As The University of Akron (UA) Wayne College prepares for the possibility of in-person classes this fall, athletics for the 2021 season have been suspended due to repurposing of the gym.

Following social distancing guidelines, the College is working through possible scenarios to allow in-person classes to resume this fall, which includes transitioning the gym into classrooms. “The Boyer Gymnasium has the possibility to be transformed into multiple classrooms, seating a total of 132 students,” stated Amy Haynes, director of business operations.

Competing in the Ohio Regional Campus Conference (ORCC) as the Wayne Warriors, suspended indoor athletics include volleyball, and men’s and women’s basketball.

A final decision about fall classes is expected later this summer.
