Everyone remembers the day.
March 12, 2020 — Less than 24 hours after news of Rudy Gobert contracting the coronavirus made its rounds, sports leagues across the country went dark. Before the first quarterfinal game of the Big East Tournament tipped off, other conferences were suspending and cancelling their conference tournament. The Creighton Bluejays and St. John’s Red Storm played the final half of Big East and college basketball, before the game and the rest of the tournament was inevitably cancelled.
There hasn’t been any basketball since, and the future is filled with uncertainty. As the pros prepare for a return to sports, colleges and high schools are scrambling for answers and plans for this upcoming school year.
