Santa Clara hosts San Diego on Saturday at 11 a.m. The Broncos lone senior, Nadine Del Carmen, will be recognized prior to the match.
Unfortunately, due to a spike in COVID-19 cases with the campus community and despite a recent improvement, we remain unable to allow fans into the facility at this time. The priority continues to be the health and safety of our student-athletes, coaches and staff so the university will continue to evaluate campus policies. While the state of California announced guidance for outdoor seated venues on April 1, the university reserves the right to be more cautious than public health guidance.
