INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The NCAA has pulled seven championship events from North Carolina for the coming year due to a state law that some say can lead to discrimination against LGBT people.

The NCAA has issued a news release saying the decision by its board of governors came “because of the cumulative actions taken by the state concerning civil rights protections.”

The season-opening NCAA men’s basketball tournament games scheduled for Greensboro will be relocated. Also affected are the Division I women’s soccer, golf and lacrosse championships, along with the Division II men’s and women’s soccer and tennis championships and the Division II baseball championship.
