After the postponement of The Atlantic 10/Mountain West Conference Challenge because of covid-19 concerns, Duquesne’s game in that series at Wyoming has been canceled.

The series was scheduled to begin in December, but the games will be rescheduled for the 2021-22 season, according to the conferences’ mutual agreement.

The parameters of the series remain the same, with 10 schools from each conference — a total of 20 — meeting in early December, five at A-10 venues and five in the Mountain West.

Meanwhile, Duquesne is working on a 2020 nonconference schedule to coincide with the NCAA’s revised college basketball start date of Nov. 25, the day before Thanksgiving.
