ASU withdraws from SBC Tournament
Arkansas State University withdrew from the Sun Belt Conference Tournament on Tuesday, citing "covid-19 testing and taking extra precautions to provide a safe travel environment" in a news release.
"We're obviously very disappointed that we aren't going to be able to compete in the conference tournament, but the safety and health of our student-athletes is our top priority," Coach Santiago Restrepo said in the release.
The University of Arkansas at Little Rock, however, begins pool play in Foley, Ala., today against Louisiana-Lafayette at noon Central. The Trojans lead the all-time series 39-16, but the Ragin' Cajuns have won five consecutive matches.
