WOLFVILLE, N.S. - (The Chronicle Herald By Glenn MacDonald) Instead of preparing for the Atlantic university football playoffs, Jeff Cummins' Acadia Axemen had a competitive game of flag football.
Such is the crackdown of COVID-19 which decimated AUS fall sports and its championships, including the football semifinals and Loney Bowl final which would've been contested over the next two Saturdays.
There wasn't any guarantee the 2019 Loney Bowl champion Axemen would have made it that far, but Cummins liked his chances before the pandemic outbreak.
"We were out on the field playing flag football on Sunday morning and we had a conversation about how the coaches and I and a handful of the players would be prepping for the conference playoffs this week, if we were playing," the long-time Acadia bench boss said.
