Due to COVID-19 issues within the Virginia Tech program, UNC’s scheduled men’s basketball game at home against the Hokies on Tuesday has been postponed.

Virginia Tech announced the news Saturday afternoon. This will mark the second game the Tar Heels have had postponed in just over a week–for one reason or another–after Miami opted not to play UNC this past Monday when a video surfaced showing Tar Heel players partying without masks.

The Hokies are currently ranked No. 18 in the country and hold third place in the ACC standings, two spots ahead of UNC.
