Positive covid-19 tests, contact tracing and enforced quarantines required the University of Arkansas at Little Rock women's basketball team to postpone its weekend set with Louisiana-Lafayette on Thursday.
Under Sun Belt Conference covid-19 protocols, a program must carry a roster of at least seven players in order to compete, and following a round of testing Wednesday, the Trojans fell below that threshold between positive tests and possible exposures within the program.
This weekend marks the first postponement of the Trojans' season. In a news release, UALR (5-4, 1-1 Sun Belt) said the pair of games with the Ragin' Cajuns, initially set for Friday and Saturday, will be rescheduled.
