I've had this happen as a player. Since we were too far from our court to have it go to ours, we went to the gym 10 miles away. As we were pulling out of the parking lot, they came back on.

The 1st games (BJV/GJV) have a scheduled start time of 4:15 PM. The 2 schools are approximately 2 & a half hours apart.

How/why the power issues I have no idea, as I hadn't heard anything in the news.

Years ago, when my better half and I were newly wedded and we lived in Los Angeles, I had a women's jr. college game that was about 30 miles east of where we lived. I arrived at the game site only to be told that the game was going to be moved to the visitor's gym, about 30 miles south of the home school because of a leak in the roof. We all hopped in our cars and went on a road trip. No mileage pay either. LOL

I had a small college game moved to a D3 campus about 25 miles away last year because the home court got damaged during the snowstorms we had.

I am thinking that since tonight's games are league, that the home game that's scheduled later in the season will be played there (to keep the home-home series going).

Unsure though, until am notified by the AD.

I can imagine what the other school's AD must be doing with the problem of having to do things last minute with transportation.

So, No Hot, Single, Moms ...

Not my game, but last year we had a kid bend the rim during a dunk. Game got moved into an auxiliary gym, with just enough room for the players, coaches, table crew, and officials. Guess who wasn't invited?

Had a school play their home games on a local college's court one year due to water damage from broken pipes. It wasn't a last minute change, though.
