The Michigan State Spartans hockey team was slated to play a two-game series at Munn Ice Arena Tuesday and Wednesday this week against the Wisconsin Badgers. However, a positive COVID-19 test within the Wisconsin program has caused the series to be postponed.

There is no official make-up date for the series scheduled at this time. MSU is 2-3-1 and the Badgers are currently 5-5. The initial 10-game schedule released for the first half of Big Ten play leaves just a two game series at Notre Dame left.

The full press release from Michigan State is below:

EAST LANSING – The Michigan State hockey team’s two-game series vs. Wisconsin scheduled for Dec. 8-9 at Munn Ice Arena will not be played.

Following a positive COVID-19 test within the Wisconsin program, medical officials from each school conferred and decided to postpone the games. The two-game series is expected to be rescheduled.

Michigan State is scheduled to return to action Dec. 19-20 at Notre Dame.
