MINNEAPOLIS - Thursday's Big Ten Regional Weekend game between Minnesota and Nebraska has been deemed a no-contest, as mutually agreed upon by both teams due to health and safety concerns in the Nebraska program. This decision was made out of an abundance of caution and after consultation with medical experts.
Minnesota will advance to face the winner of tonight's game between Iowa and Illinois on Sunday, April 11 at Demirjian Park in Champaign, Ill., with the kickoff time to be determined. The game will be streamed live on Big Ten Network+.
The winner of Sunday's game will earn a berth at the 2021 Big Ten Tournament, scheduled for April 15-18.
Statement from Minnesota head coach Stefanie Golan
"Our thoughts are obviously with the Nebraska student-athletes, coaches and staff. This year has been so unique and challenging for every team and this is certainly not the way that Nebraska wanted their season to end and this is not the way that we wanted to advance. We wish those affected in Nebraska's program a full recovery and we will now turn our focus to the winner of tonight's game between Iowa and Illinois."
