BOZEMAN — In the current state of college basketball with COVID-19, each game is susceptible to being canceled or postponed. On Thursday, the Montana State women's basketball team announced that its home series against Idaho this weekend would be canceled due to the Vandals going through COVID-19 protocols within their program.
The two teams were scheduled to play a crucial two-game series at Brick Breeden Fieldhouse on Thursday and Saturday.
