Syracuse women’s basketball game against Siena postponed due to COVID precautions

Just minutes ahead of Syracuse Orange women’s basketball team’s matchup with Siena, it was announced that the game was off due to positive COVID-19 tests from one of the Saints’ recent opponents.

It is the first game that either team has missed due to COVID-19.

The announcement from Siena came just twenty minutes before the scheduled tip at 2 p.m. The Saints played against Rider on Monday and at Albany eight days before that. The language of the tweet suggests that Siena does not yet have positive cases, but is not going to take the risk of playing on Wednesday.
