Tony Poljan, Virginia, Player News

Tight end Tony Poljan, who also stands at 6-7, caught four passes for 44 yards, including a 14-yard reception on a third down in the fourth quarter. The reception extended the drive, which resulted in a touchdown to Davis Jr. on the next play. Poljan, wh o played quarterback at the beginning of his collegiate career, says there's major room for improvement in his route running. He's studied current Las Vegas Raiders tight end and former Dallas Cowboys great Jason Witten since making the positional switch , and he's hoping to run routes more efficiently as Virginia's season progresses. Through one week, however, the graduate transfer tight end from Central Michigan has seamlessly integrated into the offense. "I would say since we have had a longer time to practice than normal due to the virus that chemistry is there more," Poljan said. "I would say it's just one of those things that take a lot of practice and a lot of repetition to be able to trust it with those third-down catches." - Charlottesville Dai ly Progress

The Mid-American Conference athletic landscape has changed significantly in recent weeks as a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Most recently, on May 15, the MAC announced it was implementing a cost-cutting plan for football heading into the 2020 s eason.

On May 12 the MAC announced it was eliminating eight conference tournaments and modifying the format to seven other conference tournaments. At Central Michiga n University the athletic program has also cut pay to numerous coaches and administrators as a byproduct of the COVID-19 pandemic. - Morning Sun
