An additional year of eligibility will be granted to all NCAA Spring Sports student-athletes. I'm going to assume it will be in effect for all student-athletes, not just the seniors...
Here are the sports; baseball, lacrosse, golf, rowing, softball and tennis

Claypool Goes "Officially" 4.42 in 40 Today!
🔥6’4” 238 lbs.
🔥4.45 40-yard dash
🔥19 Bench press reps
Chase Claypool is having a Combine.
pic.twitter.com/2ct4Q5hkdn— PFF Draft (@PFF_College) February 27, 2020
It goes down as the 2nd fastest "all-time" for a wide receiver taller than 6'-4" weighing more than 235 lbs. The only one faster -- Georgia Tech's Calvin Johnson, back in 2007!Pretty good company. Mr. Claypool made some money today!
