After just eight games, the Vanderbilt women’s basketball season is over.
A statement from the university says the remainder of the season will be cancelled due to a combination of COVID-19 related circumstances, opt-outs and injuries.
Vanderbilt says students led the decision making.
“Their health, safety and well-being have always been, and will continue to be, a top priority,” athletic director Candice Lee says in a statement. “We know that this was a tough call for them, in a year full of tough calls, and a disappointing outcome for the student-athletes and the program.”
The Commodores already had to reschedule games because of quarantine protocols. They have gone 4-4 but had no wins against Southeastern Conference opponents. South Carolina beat Vanderbilt 106-43 last week.
