Here's the official announcement regarding GMU. So far, all of the cancellations have been on the other teams. I'm getting a bit concerned that this will be a lost season.
AMHERST, Mass. - The University of Massachusetts women's basketball game against George Mason on Saturday has been postponed due to COVID-19 protocol within George Mason's program.
The Minutewomen will now open Atlantic 10 play on Wednesday, January 5, on the road at Rhode Island at 7 p.m.

Early indications from south africa is that the omicron wave will be very harsh but very short lived. Hoping we can get a good season in still.

They haven't asked yet to see vax cards (Mullins Center has always reserved the right to do so) and I would imagine they would be doing so for future home games.

No game tonight. Called off by Dartmouth.

I know that conference play has not started for the Minutewomen, but in the most recent ESPN Bracketology, we get the automatic qualifier with a 10 seed. We would go to Louisville to play Nebraska.

Big game on Wednesday against URI, pre-season projected #2 in the conference.

I think realtimerpi also has us in at an 11 seed, though we would be one of three A10 teams in which I don't see happening. I think its been over a decade since there were 3 teams in -- when A10 had Xavier, Temple, etc.

If they have the game next weekend AND there are fans, better make sure you bring your vax card! Have to imagine they would be checking those with all of these postponements.

Assuming they ever play a game again, gotta keep building off of this!

Not accurate. They were ranked in the mid and early 90’s and I believe in 80’s.

I also think we got 1 vote earlier this season.

We're up to 3 votes, but a tough one tomorrow coming off a Covid break. Verdi says they have barely practiced for 5 days.
