Lackawanna College canceled its 2019-2020 men’s basketball season, the college announced today.
In a prepared statement, Sharon Lynett, director of marketing and communications, said:
“Lackawanna College holds its student-athletes to high standards both inside and outside the classroom. When they fail to meet those standards, our administration must act in the best interest of the entire college community. In this case, unfortunately, we have no choice but to cancel the season.”
Lynett said the school would have no further comment.
The team, coached by Brian Coyle, was scheduled to play a home game Nov. 12 against Essex County College, one of 19 homes games scheduled this year, according to the college’s website.
