The Horizon League released a statement Wednesday confirming that University of Illinois Chicago athletic teams would not be allowed to compete in their respective league championships this season due to the school accepting an invitation to join the Missouri Valley Conference in 2022-23.

As reported by SwimSwam, UIC accepted an invite to join the MVC in late January. Under the Horizon League’s current bylaws (Bylaw 2.5.3.3), UIC needed to notify the league of its planned departure by July 1, 2021, in order to ensure its athletes could compete in their respective 2022 Horizon championship competitions.
