Operative words

Due to the announcement from Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham that interscholastic athletics cannot take place during the Fall Semester because of COVID-19 related public health concerns, the New Mexico Activities Association has been forced to postpone its Volleyball, Cross Country, and Fall Golf seasons.... At this point, however, we cannot stage any competitive events without an update to the current public health order. Thus, the NMAA's Fall Sports Seasons have been postposed strictly based on the orders set forth by the Office of the Governor.
