Men’s Basketball: Games against Western Kentucky pushed back to Sunday and Monday due to COVID-19

FAU men’s basketball had its home games in the Burrow against the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers pushed back to Feb. 7 and 8 on Thursday afternoon due to COVID-19 testing within the Hilltoppers.

According to FAU Athletics, multiple members from Western Kentucky were showing symptoms of illness before the team left for Florida. They later tested negative on Thursday.

It was stated that the “entire travel party tested negative for COVID-19 on PCR swab tests on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.”

“Out of an abundance of caution, the entire travel party will receive another PCR test Friday,” FAU Athletics said.
