The Charlotte 49ers have announced that the 49ers Conference USA football opener vs. Old Dominion has been moved to Thursday at 4 p.m. due to the arrival of poor weather conditions expected this weekend from Hurricane Florence.
Charlotte has been in constant conversation with Old Dominion, whose team arrived in town Tuesday, and has been monitoring the forecasted track of the storm, which changed over the past 24 hours.
"We appreciate everyone's patience as we worked closely with Old Dominion Athletics Director Wood Selig and the conference office to make this decision," said 49ers Director of Athletics Mike Hill.
