College basketball hit by COVID cancellations: Minnesota on pause, game with Penn State postponed

Thankfully, the onslaught of COVID-19 pauses across men’s basketball have significantly slowed in the past week-plus, meaning the schedule hasn’t had nearly the amount of postponements as it saw from mid-December and into early January. 

In total, more than 150 men’s college basketball programs have gone on COVID pause. As of Tuesday morning, the number had dropped to fewer than 10. The latest programs of note to pause are: 

• Minnesota, which had its game at Penn State postponed
• Wichita State, which pushed its forthcoming games vs. Temple and SMU
• Washington State, which is on its second pause in less than a month

Between cancellations and postponements, more than 230 games have been impacted. A complete list of schools on halt can be see below, in addition to previous programs that paused in December or earlier in January.
