Wondering if Salukiworld or someone who follows this closely knows how they decide if a team has to forfeit?

Obviously, these games can be rescheduled if they want to.  Teams only play twice a week and it’s not like there are tons of other events at SIU Arena. 

And the conference season is just starting

See below. Based on their statement 8 or more players and one coach eligible or it will be a forfeit. The fact that it wasn’t a forfeit seems to imply we didn’t meet that standard.

I am guessing the Drake game will be a reschedule too. We are 100% vaccinated, so this shows how bad the pandemic is right now. Might be a blessing in disguise if we are able to have a full squad for the Drake and Loyola games, should they be rescheduled, and an even bigger blessing if the games are played when our students are in attendance!

They only have to wait 5 days after testing positive now.  But might have to wear masks in the Drake game.  Not sure how the NCAA is handling that.  Banks was showing symptoms and was held out of the Grambling game but guessing other positives showed up.  D'Amico was down too obviously from pre-Grambling game.

What is the policy for those that have tickets to the game? Will they honor them at the New date if it's rescheduled or refund them?

All tickets sold for the Loyola game will be valid for the rescheduled date.   Saluki Athletics
