In the best attempt to make sure we can play this game tonight, it will be moved to Wichita Trinity at 12345 E. 21st St Wichita KS. The game time will be set for a 5:30 start time. Wichita Trintiy does play their first-round game before that at 4:00 PM. Some other things to consider are: No Metal cleats Sunflower seeds and gum are not allowed No lights so a prompt start would be helpful due to cloud coverage. Concessions will be provided but limited and might close early. Admission will not change. Good Luck Lady Lions!
