The Atlantic Coast Conference has canceled the remaining games scheduled in the 2020 ACC Championship. The University of Notre Dame men’s basketball team was scheduled to play Virginia in the quarterfinals of the event on Thursday, March 12, at 7 p.m. ET.
From the ACC:
“Following additional consultation with the league’s presidents and athletic directors, and in light of the continued conversations surrounding the fluidity of COVID-19, the Atlantic Coast Conference will immediately cancel the remainder of the 2020 ACC Tournament. For NCAA Tournament automatic qualification purposes, Florida State will represent the league as the ACC Champion. We are disappointed for our student-athletes, schools and fans to have to make this decision; however, the overall health and safety of all involved is the priority.”
The health and safety of our student-athletes, support staff, families and friends are the top priority at this moment. pic.twitter.com/Jy81jcp6jW
