All UAAP events left for Season 82 from February 15, 2020, have been postponed by the UAAP Board due to the recent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak.

The UPIS Boys Volleyball Team (UPIS BVT), the UPIS Track and Field Team (UPIS TNF), and the UPIS BLK were three of the affected teams as they had upcoming events when the change in schedule happened. The UPIS BVT only had one game day left for their season. The UPIS TNF and the UPIS BLK, on the other hand, had both their seasons postponed again.

The UPIS BVT, currently with a standing of 0-6, were looking into a possible win in their next and last game against the University of Santo Tomas (UST) on February 15 when the UAAP events were postponed.

Meanwhile, this is the third postponement of the UAAP Season 82 Track and Field tournament. At first, it was moved from its original dates, January 11-15, 2020, because of the conflict in schedule and venue with the 2019 Southeast Asian Games. The second change in schedule was due to the lack of complete equipment such as light posts on the track oval. The third change in schedule is the current postponement.

The UPIS BLK, the streetdance team representing UPIS, had their eyes on their competition day, March 15, when it was moved to March 21. It was then moved again due to the virus outbreak, but no new schedule has been set.

All sporting events will push through until further notice from the UAAP Board. //by Kyle Mararac
