“Robbed”: Trojans react to abrupt end of historic season

The Troy women’s basketball team was heading into the Sun Belt Conference tournament as the No. 1 seed and eyeing an NCAA tournament bid before the COVID-19 pandemic put a halt to their championship run.

The Sun Belt Conference announced the tournament was canceled just before the Trojans took off for New Orleans. As the regular season champions, Troy earned the automatic NCAA tournament bid.
