Schedule and results

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Bearcats' schedule is subject to change, including the cancellation or postponement of individual games, the cancellation of the entire season, or games played either with minimal fans or without fans in attendance and just essential personnel.

  • The game vs. Robert Morris scheduled for December 12 was cancelled due to COVID-19 issues.[1]
  • The game vs. Central Connecticut scheduled for December 22 was cancelled due to COVID-19 issues.[2]
  • The two-game series vs. Maine scheduled for January 23–24 was postponed due to COVID-19 issues within the Maine program.[3]
  • The AEC scheduled a series vs. NJIT to replace the postponed series, but that series itself was eventually postponed due to COVID-19 issues within the Binghamton program.
  • The two-game series vs. NJIT scheduled for February 6–7 as well as the two-game series vs. Maine scheduled for February 13–14 were postponed because the Binghamton program paused all team activities due to COVID-19 issues.[4]
