(WSIL) -- The Murray State Racers won't play Kentucky Wesleyan College on Friday.

Press releases from both schools say Friday's men's basketball game has been called off due to COVID-19 concerns.

The schools are still slated to play on Saturday but that could change based on protocols and contact tracing. Medical staffs from both schools are now working together to determine what's next.

Murray State officials say if they do play on Saturday tickets for Friday's game will be good at the door.

The CFSB Center ticket office will be reachable by phone (270-809-3000) from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Friday. The ticket office will open Saturday at 5 p.m.
