GCU receives forfeit victory in conference standings due to Lamar’s player availability issues
The men's basketball contest between Grand Canyon and Lamar that was scheduled for Saturday in Beaumont, Texas, was canceled and will not be rescheduled in a Friday announcement made by the WAC.
The decision was made by Lamar due to lack of player availability. As a result, GCU will receive a forfeit win and Lamar will receive a forfeit loss toward seeding at the WAC Basketball Tournament. Per NCAA guidelines, the game will be a no contest for NCAA Evaluation Tool (NET) rankings.
The Lopes improve to 3-0 in conference play but remain 12-2 overall following the cancellation.
GCU defeated UT Rio Grande Valley 84-70 on Thursday night in Edinburg, Texas. With the back half of the road trip canceled, the Lopes will turn their focus to a two-game week at GCU Arena with fellow 2021 NCAA tournament participant Abilene Christian visiting Thursday and Tarleton visiting Saturday. Both games will tip at 7 p.m. with Saturday's matchup airing on ESPNU.
