Tier 1 members include student-athletes, coaches, team managers and support staff. The team was notified of the positive result after its 74-45 win against Texas A&M University-Commerce on Wednesday.

The Lady Mavericks have also canceled their next two home games against Midwestern State University and Rice University. UTA was scheduled to face Midwestern State on Sunday and Rice on Wednesday.
