September 20, 2005
PRAIRIE VIEW, Texas - In anticipation of Hurricane Rita, the
Prairie View A&M University Athletic Department has decided
to postpone several upcoming home athletic events. Men's and
women's cross country, volleyball and soccer are affected by
the forecast of severe weather.
"Due to the approach of Hurricane Rita we have decided
to postpone all of our upcoming athletic events for this week," said
PVAMU athletic director Charles McClelland. "Ensuring
the safety of our student-athletes, fans, supporters and the
participating schools is our main concern."
The Prairie View A&M University men's and women's cross
country teams were slated to host the Hoover Wright Cross Country
Classic on Thursday afternoon and the volleyball team was scheduled
to host Southern University on Thursday evening. On Sunday,
soccer was scheduled to host Robert Morris College at 1:00
p.m. All of these events have been postponed and will be rescheduled
at a later date.
