The Iowa State vs. DePaul men’s basketball game that was scheduled for Sunday evening as part of the Big 12/Big East Battle was cancelled due to COVID-19 issues among the DePaul roster and staff. Iowa State Coach Steve Prohm issued this statement:

“We are disappointed that we are unable to play this evening against DePaul. We were looking forward to playing in front of our fans for the first time this season. When this season started we knew there would likely be postponements and cancellations. Dealing with a pandemic is difficult. Even though our players are disappointed they won’t be able to play tonight, it’s also important to remember that the health and safety of the student-athletes is our No. 1 concern.”

Next up for the Cyclones is a trip to Iowa City for the Cy-Hawk game on Friday night at 8:00 p.m.
