SANTA CLARA, Calif. — After Thursday's scheduled WCC game between Saint Mary's and Santa Clara was postponed due to COVID-19 issues, both teams have announced a rescheduled date in February. The Gaels and Broncos will play in Santa Clara on February 8, with a tip-off set for 6:00 pm.
Â
Last season, the Gaels and Broncos met just once because of COVID-19 adjustments made to the conference schedule. The two teams were originally set to meet in Santa Cruz on a neutral floor given restrictions in Santa Clara county, but eventually played the game in Moraga. This February 8 matchup is now expected to close out the season series between the two, as the Broncos are scheduled to come to University Credit Union Pavilion on January 20.
Â
Thursday's game was set to be televised on ESPNU. An announcement on what network will carry the new February 8 contest will be made at a later date.
Â
Saint Mary's is still scheduled to play at BYU on Saturday, January 8 with a tip-off time of 7:00 pm PT. Fans can watch Saturday's game against the Cougars on ESPN2.
