Little Rock Announces Changes to 2021 Conference Basketball Format

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – Little Rock men's and women's basketball programs have announced an update to their 2021 Sun Belt Conference schedules, following an announcement by the league office.

The conference has announced an 18-game, division-only schedule beginning January 1. To limit exposure due to COVID concerns, teams will play the same opponent twice in a weekend, playing games on Friday and Saturday. The change limits the amount of interactions on a given weekend regarding both travel and competition as well as providing sufficient time to test student-athletes and team personnel.

The 2021 Sun Belt slate will once again follow the mirror scheduling format, with the exception of six doubleheaders for the Trojans in league play.
