LSU hosts Kansas City in the Tigers’ home opener, Wednesday, November 9, 2022, at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center on the campus of LSU in Baton Rouge, La.

LSU and UNO canceled Sunday's women’s basketball game because of "health and safety protocols within the UNO program," both schools announced Friday.

LSU said in a statement that it "actively searched for a replacement" but was unable to find an opponent.

The game will not be rescheduled or made up. Fans who bought tickets to Sunday’s game will get refunds at the end of the season, according to an LSU statement. Fans could otherwise exchange their UNO tickets for a future game.

UNO (1-5) was coming off a 79-61 loss at Wichita State on Dec. 3.

The Tigers won their ninth straight game to open the season with an 85-72 victory at Tulane. LSU's next game is Dec. 14 against Lamar in the Pete Maravich Assembly Center.

The Tigers will have had a nine-day break between games.
