The game will go on Saturday for Charlotte and Western Kentucky – just a couple of hours behind schedule.
The 49ers and Lady Toppers’ original 2 p.m. tipoff time will be pushed to 4 p.m. at E.A. Diddle Arena. The delay is “in order to ensure that the areas around the arena are clear and safe for fans,” a WKU release stated.
All parking and admission for the game will be free due to the time change. All parking must be in Parking Structure 2, located between Diddle Arena and Houchens-Smith Stadium.
As far as the game itself goes, it’s an important one for both teams.
