Syracuse won’t offer season-ticket packages for men’s and women’s basketball games this year and instead will transition to a single-game model, SU Athletics announced in a release.

The pivot is due to “the many uncertainties created by the COVID-19 pandemic,”and includes rollover and refund options in addition to the single-game tickets, SU Athletics stated.

Syracuse hasn’t had fans at its four football games in the Carrier Dome this fall or at any of the Olympic sports games. When SU announced Sept. 11 that no spectators would be allowed at those games, it said the decision could change as the seasons progress. But, with just one home game remaining for any fall sports, that policy hasn’t changed.

Director of Athletics John Wildhack said in a May 28 email to season-ticket holders that it was “too early to tell” whether fans would be allowed at men’s and women’s basketball games. Two months later, SU announced that it’d transition completely to mobile ticketing for football, basketball and lacrosse games beginning this fall.

As of now, Syracuse men’s basketball opens its season on Nov. 27 against Bryant, while women’s basketball’s schedule will be released Wednesday morning.
