With a Category 4 hurricane approaching much of North and South Carolina during the week of Sept. 10th, it was unclear early on whether or not the Niners and the Monarchs would meet as planned. Eventually, the decision was made to move the game from Saturday, Sept. 15th to Thursday, Sept. 13th at 4 p.m.
“Obviously, we’d been monitoring the traffic of the hurricane for quite a while and initially you saw that a lot of the paths were sending it a little north of us where we thought our game would still be in good shape on Saturday.
