The Lady Indians softball games were cancelled on Friday as Coach Mitch Smith anticipated severe weather in the Allendale area. Thus far, it has been anything but severe, most weather experts have been saying we should see rain but again they have been wrong-SURPRISE!
When the Indians baseball team left for Lancaster, South Carolina this morning, it looked as though the games were a go but when they arrived, the skies opened up and the games were cancelled.
Coach Jeff Wicker said earlier that there is a 1% chance of playing later today, so I don't expect to report any scores today.
Now, the games tomorrow look as they may be played with the prediction of the weather improving overnight in Lancaster. It would seem that all is a go for Sunday but not so fast, the question now becomes, what shape will the field be in after so much rain? I am not sure what the USC Lancaster fields drainage situation is and it will be interesting to see if it will be able to dry fast enough to get the games in.
So, as I type this at 3:30 pm on Saturday, we sit, we wait for the rain to come and go. I am ready for some USC Salkehatchie baseball!
SUNDAY FORECAST FOR LANCASTER, SOUTH CAROLINA:
Partly sunny and breezy. Highs in the mid 60s. Southwest winds 20 to 25 mph.
Stay tuned for more updates on the weather throughout the evening and first thing Sunday morning.
