Navy women’s basketball postpones weekend games against Bucknell due to positive COVID-19 test

The Navy women’s basketball team on Friday postponed this weekend’s Patriot League games against Bucknell due to a positive COVID-19 test within the Midshipmen’s program.

Navy was set to travel to Bucknell Saturday and host the Bison Sunday to begin conference play. The contests will be rescheduled following discussions with the two schools and the Patriot League office.

A news release from Navy athletics described the positive test as “Tier 1,” which is defined as the highest exposure and “consists of individuals for whom physical distancing and face coverings are not possible or effective during athletic training or competition.
