Women’s Basketball Game at Albright Cancelled

Pride will earn forfeit win in conference play

CHESTER, Pa. – The Widener women's basketball game versus Albright, scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 5 at Albright College, has been cancelled due to COVID-19 protocols within the Albright women's basketball program. 
 
Per the Middle Atlantic Conference's forfeit and cancellation policy, the game will go down as a forfeit victory for Widener, but the win will only be counted toward its MAC Commonwealth record and not its overall record. The overall win-loss record is not affected per NCAA guidelines. 
 
The cancellation of the women's game will not affect the men's game, which is still scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 5 at 7 p.m. at Albright. 
 
The Pride, who are 3-2 in MAC Commonwealth play and 8-5 overall, will prepare for their next game on Saturday, when they host Stevenson in MAC Commonwealth action at Schwart Athletic Center. Tip-off is set for 1 p.m. 
 
In regards to fan attendance at Widener, Widener is temporarily prohibiting all spectators from attending indoor home athletic contests until further notice. For more information on the new Widener COVID-19 policies, you can read more here or at the link at the top of the page.
