Darkness can always be a factor here. We have a lot of teams that are spread out in the same conference. Sometimes traffic can play apart to when teams show up ready to play. After the time changes, it is not as much as a factor. I work in a conference that plays conference games at 4:45. It is not totally unusual to have a game or two with that starting time that does not start until after 5:00. This conference is really spread out and depending on who the teams are getting to the school can be a problem. Darkness is always a consideration to me when the traffic can interfere with the starting time.

Peace
