The Dayton Flyers women’s basketball program announced Monday it won’t play at Charlotte on Thursday because of COVID-19 concerns within its program.

The announcement came one day after Dayton lost 77-74 to Akron at UD Arena.

Dayton’s next scheduled game will now be against Florida on Dec. 20 at UD Arena.

Dayton (1-1) opened the season with a 71-57 victory against Morehead State. Coach Shauna Green missed that game because of a positive COVID-19 test but returned to coach the team Sunday against Akron.
