After an encouraging 2-0 start in the Little Apple Classic, the University of Colorado men’s basketball season will temporarily halt operations due to COVID-19 protocols, the CU Athletic Department announced Tuesday. Colorado Athletic Director Rick George said the Buffs have more than one positive case of COVID-19 within the program and will postpone Wednesday’s matchup at Arizona.
Senior guard D’Shawn Schwartz tested positive for COVID-19 and did not play in CU’s first two games last week in Kansas. Redshirt freshman guard Keeshawn Barthelemy and freshman forward Tristan da Silva played in Wednesday’s matchup against South Dakota but were sidelined for Friday’s Kansas State game due to contact tracing.
