MOON TWP., Pa. — The news of the cancellation of March Madness has rocked the sports world including the two basketball programs at Robert Morris.
Less than 48 hours after celebrating their accomplishment of earning an automatic bid, Andy Toole’s team learned that Tuesday’s game against St. Francis would be their final one of the season.
