CEDAR FALLS, Iowa - Due to health and safety concerns the UNI women's basketball program will be canceling its first two Missouri Valley Conference contests.
The University of Northern Iowa has determined it is unable to compete in Thursday (Dec. 30) and Saturday (Jan. 1) home women's basketball games against Evansville and Indiana State, respectively. The games have been postponed, and the Missouri Valley Conference office will attempt to reschedule the games, if possible.
The MVC's forfeiture/cancelation policy states that "an institution will be required to play a Conference basketball game if it has eight or more student-athletes and one or more countable coaches available.
