Astroturf field doesn't worry so much about rain?

Softball might have to delay sooner to get the tarp down. They played in the rain against Loserville last weekend.

PhotoHokieNC • 05/21/22 03:51 PM ET
It doesn't seem like anything bad is going on here.

I'm in Riner and the thunder is rumbling and skies are scary dark, but
Nortazhokie • 05/21/22 03:34 PM ET
My god, if Riner starts drifting north, we're all doomed.

I met a honey in Riner. Radford Sr … boarding with a lady there. Summer
DonHo-kieHi • 05/21/22 04:03 PM ET
Does anyone know why they couldn’t have moved the time up?
vt49701 • 05/21/22 03:30 PM ET
Because the NCAA and ESPN suck**

"clearly ... in the forecast" has never been all that accurate.**
PhotoHokieNC • 05/21/22 03:32 PM ET
Huh?? Forecasts are very very reliable the day of.**

If noise was rain here in the CLT we'd be 12' underwater now. As it is
PhotoHokieNC • 05/21/22 03:24 PM ET
I was following baseball also on live stats and seems like they're still
Jbohokie63 • 05/21/22 03:13 PM ET
Baseball is also now delayed.**
VANESSAHOKIE • 05/21/22 03:42 PM ET
Yes they are which is crazy**
VTChip • 05/21/22 03:15 PM ET
Realtime lightning shows none terrible close...maybe 75 miles**
JoesterVT • 05/21/22 03:24 PM ET
Well, on second look maybe 40 miles. How close is too close?**
JoesterVT • 05/21/22 03:27 PM ET
Evidently lightning in the same hemisphere is close enough.**

nvpbrown • 05/21/22 03:22 PM ET
Also may be.....
2hhoop3 • 05/21/22 03:26 PM ET
Looks like that strategy didn't work. **
nvpbrown • 05/21/22 03:36 PM ET
It was worth a try......
2hhoop3 • 05/21/22 03:42 PM ET
It would suck if we lose the division due to a cancelation.
nvpbrown • 05/21/22 03:46 PM ET
That's not even true.**
PhotoHokieNC • 05/21/22 03:52 PM ET
Maybe you're right, 18-9 versus 20-10 would involve a tiebreaker. **
nvpbrown • 05/21/22 04:00 PM ET
Smh**
Jbohokie63 • 05/21/22 03:19 PM ET
