Update: The game has been postponed and will be made up as part of a doubleheader on Tuesday Aug 25th starting at 5:05. The teams can now get on their buses and get an early getaway to State College where they will meet tomorrow night in the Spikes home opener.
This game was scheduled for a 10:45 start but will be delayed.
It rained heavily overnight and, as of 10:30 this morning, the tarp is still on the field and the Spikes are still at their hotel, so the game isn’t about to start anytime soon.
The rain has subsided over the last 15 minutes and a decision needs to be made regarding the game. Obviously because of the early scheduled start they have plenty of time to wait out the weather. Jamestown would actually prefer to reschedule the game as part of a doubleheader later in the season. However, they have a major educational promotion going on today with lots of school kids in attendance. Because of the promotion, they have to get permission from the league to cancel the game and that decision has not yet been made.
I’ll be back when I know more.
