BYU men’s basketball’s schedule continues to be thrown for a loop.

Thursday’s previously scheduled game against Saint Mary’s is now postponed due to COVID-19 related protocols within the Gaels program.

Saint Mary’s is the sixth and latest West Coast Conference program to put a pause on team activities and games due to COVID-19. It will also be the sixth straight postponement for the Gaels, who haven’t played since a close win over San Francisco Jan. 23.

Saint Mary’s (11-5; 2-3 WCC) is currently ranked seventh in league standings.

The Cougars host Gonzaga on Monday and don’t have another game on the schedule until Feb. 18, when they play at Pacific.
