Bison Sports has decided it will honour the achievements of University of Manitoba athletes and coaches virtually after the annual Brown and Gold Gala that had been scheduled for Saturday was cancelled because of the coronavirus pandemic.
The U of M athletic department announced Friday in a news release that its end-of-season awards will be announced online beginning Monday, March 30 in the afternoon and continuing through Friday, April 3 with the naming of the team MVPs. “Over the next two weeks, Bison Sports will be announcing 2019-20 team MVPs and major award winners through our website (gobisons.ca) and on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram (@umbisons),” the athletic department said.
