For the second time this calendar year, a Notre Dame vs. Western Michigan athletic contest has been canceled.
Back in the fall, it was the two football teams as Notre Dame joining the ACC and the MAC at the time canceling their season meant they didn’t end up playing on the gridiron.
Now in men’s basketball, the Broncos won’t be making the bus ride south from Kalamazoo on Wednesday because of a lack of available players due to COVID-19.
Notre Dame announced on Tuesday that there is no current plan to reschedule the game that was supposed to be the home opener for the Fighting Irish.
Notre Dame’s game on Friday night against Tennessee has also been canceled leaving the Irish to open the home season this coming Saturday morning against Purdue Fort Wayne.
Notre Dame is 0-1 on the young season after falling at Michigan State on Saturday night.
