CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) announced its men’s and women’s basketball schedule for the 2020-21 regular season on Wednesday.
The modified schedule will feature a 16-game conference slate, including 10 divisional and six cross-divisional contests, that begins on January 9 and continues through February 20. The cross-divisional schedule, which runs through January 25, will utilize the men’s and women’s doubleheader format.
To help ensure the health and safety of student-athletes, coaches, and staff, men’s and women’s games will move to a split schedule to finish out the regular season as divisional play begins on January 28.
