COVID postpones basketball

This weekend’s basketball games against Colorado School of Mines and Regis University, are rescheduled for Jan. 3-4, 2021.

 The decision was made due to safety concerns regarding COVID-19. President Rhine released Wednesday that only CSC students and faculty will be allowed at on-campus events.

Head Men’s Basketball Coach Shane Paben said that he wasn’t surprised with this decision, and he believes that it’s just a little hard mentally on coaches and athletes for every sport. 

“Right now, we’ve had 22 practices,” Paben said. “All of our scrimmages have been canceled or postponed. I know that we can get better in every area right now. The guys need to play against someone else right now.” 

The Eagles are scheduled to play Fort Lewis College, Dec. 4, and Western Colorado University, Dec. 5, in Colorado.
