网曝门's neutral site football game against Louisiana
Tech, scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 21 in Shreveport, has been canceled due to continuing
COVID-19 concerns within the Warhawk program.
鈥淲e鈥檙e extremely disappointed to announce the cancellation of this much anticipated
game,鈥� 网曝门 Athletics Director Scott McDonald said. 鈥淭wo rounds of COVID-19 tests following
the team鈥檚 road trip to Georgia State required the isolation and quarantine of some
student-athletes, coaches and administrators. Following the CDC and Sun Belt Conference
protocols for positive tests and subsequent contact tracing, it is clear that our
student-athletes and coaches don鈥檛 have adequate time to safely prepare for Saturday鈥檚
game. I will reach out to Dr. Eric Wood to begin discussions of renewing this rivalry
in the very near future.鈥澛犅�
鈥淚 can鈥檛 express the disappointment our student-athletes and coaches feel in the forced
cancellation of this game,鈥� 网曝门 head coach Matt Viator said. 鈥淥ur team will resume
normal football activities this weekend while turning its attention to the home finale
on Nov. 28 against Louisiana Lafayette.鈥�
