VCU to Host JMU; LSU Game Cancelled

The VCU Rams’ road game in Baton Rouge, La., with LSU, scheduled for Tuesday has been canceled due to COVID-19 issues within the Tigers program. Consequently, VCU has promptly scheduled a matchup to cover for the lost game with an in-state sometime rival James Madison University on Tuesday, Dec. 22, at the Siegel Center.

Tuesday’s 4 p.m. tilt will be Rams first meeting with the Dukes of James Madison since the 2011-12 season. At that time both schools were members of the Colonial Athletic Association. 

Thus, between 1971 and 2012 the two Virginia schools -- just 130 miles apart -- have plenty of history. As it stands, all-time, VCU has a 44-and-21 record in 65 contests with JMU.

MASN and ESPN+ will broadcast the game on cable TV. The radio version will be carried on WRNL 910 AM.
