Home games start times

Post by The Cats »

Today WCU announced their home game start times.

The first three home games start at 3:30 pm; the final three at 2 pm - no evening/night games.

I could have sworn we had something like 11:00 start times when I was at UOP. WRONG! The Oregon State game (9/9/95) started at 7, but that was the only night home game. The other three started at 2 (LA Tech on 10/14), 2 (NMSU on 11/4), and 1:30 (Nevada on 11/11). Maybe it was the fact that we had team meals and chapel meetings that early.

I don't have any schedules from my days at Sac, but suffice it to say that I like day games better. Unless a major heat wave is expected, of course....

First 2-3 home games are usually evening (less heat), then they switch to Noon or 3. I actually like all three times (at least I did when I used to go).

Generally speaking our home games are at 7pm until the last two which get a 3:30 start. I like it because my daughters soccer/field hockey schedules won't interfere.
