The 2020 Atlantic 10 Men’s Basketball Tournament at the Barclays Center has been canceled due to the Corona Virus outbreak in the United States.
Minutes before #8 UMass and #9 VCU started the Atlantic 10 Quarterfinals, there was announcement made on the PA system that the tournament was now canceled and everyone must exit the arena as soon as possible.
No plans of making up the tournament at a later date in the discussion amongst the Atlantic 10 officials. The Atlantic 10 joins the American, ACC, Big 12, Conference USA, SEC, WAC shutting down their conference post-season tournament due to the outbreak.
As for the NCAA Men’s Tournament, the NCAA committee currently is having meetings to determine the fate of March Madness possibly being postponed or canceled entirely.
