The ACC has announced that Syracuse's game against Louisville Wednesday night has been postponed. More from the ACC:

"The Atlantic Coast Conference has announced that the Louisville at Syracuse men’s basketball game scheduled for tonight has been postponed.

The postponement follows a positive test, subsequent quarantining, and contact tracing within the Louisville men’s basketball program. The team is adhering to the outlined protocols within the ACC Medical Advisory Group report, which is available on theACC.com (full report).

Further updates and schedule adjustments by the ACC will be announced at a later date."

This is the fourth covid related incident that has impacted Syracuse basketball. The first was a positive test for head coach Jim Boeheim prior to the season opener that resulted in the program going on pause for two weeks. They were able to get one day of practice in before facing Bryant to start the season. 

Following that game, Buddy Boeheim had to quarantine following close contact with an individual who tested positive. He missed three games as a result. 

The Syracuse program had to go on pause a second time after facing Buffalo earlier this season. The Bulls announced a positive test within their program within a couple of days after playing the Orange. Syracuse again was on pause for two weeks and had several games postponed. Now Syracuse has a game postponed due to a positive test within another program. 

As a result of Syracuse not playing Louisville Wednesday night, their next game will be on Saturday at Clemson. Syracuse is currently 10-5 (4-4) on the season.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting.  EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
