On Tuesday morning, Pitt released its 2020-21 ACC men’s basketball schedule. The schedule release occurred not a moment too soon, as college basketball season is set to begin on Nov. 25, and just over two weeks out, much was still unclear about the upcoming season.
Pitt revealed along with its ACC schedule that it will have a plan in place for hosting fans at the Petersen Events Center. The school will be able to host 1,250 attendees for each of its 14 home games, which is roughly 10 percent of the building’s usual 12,508-seat capacity.
The limited capacity is due to state and local restrictions on large indoor gatherings that are in place to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
