Positive COVID-19 tests derail Kansas, Virginia tourney runs

Major conferences have had to call off tournament games with cancellations involving No. 11 Kansas and No. 16 Virginia. The Jayhawks withdrew from the Big 12 Tournament on Friday after a positive COVID-19 test within the program. That forced the cancellation of a semifinal matchup with No. 13 Texas. In the Atlantic Coast Conference, the Cavaliers’ semifinal matchup with Georgia Tech was canceled due to a positive COVID-19 test, quarantining and contact tracing within the Cavaliers program. The cancellations came a day after Duke withdrew from the ACC Tournament and ended its season amid its own positive test.
