The Maryland men’s basketball game against Nebraska scheduled for Saturday at noon in College Park has been postponed due to positive COVID-19 testing results among Tier 1 personnel in the Cornhuskers’ program, the schools announced Tuesday.
Tier 1 personnel include student-athletes, coaches and any staff member whose job requires close regular contact. Nebraska (4-8, 0-5 Big Ten) paused all team activities Monday and postponed a game scheduled for Wednesday against Illinois. The Huskers said Tuesday that no determination has been made on how the pause might impact scheduled games beyond Jan. 16.
Maryland, Nebraska and the Big Ten Conference are working to find a mutually agreeable date to reschedule the game.
