Iowa’s Tuesday afternoon game against Cornell College was cancelled due to some pretty unforgiving elements and will not be made up. A second February baseball game in Iowa City just wasn’t in the cards - Mother Nature pulled the old “Lucy pulling the football away before Charlie Brown could kick it” gag, teasing everyone with mid-to-upper 60s weather before throwing a thunderstorm into the mix.
The game was scheduled to start at 3 p.m., but due to lightning and thunderstorms in the area, it was pushed back. By the time the lightning, rain, and hail subsided in Iowa City, the game was set to begin at 5 p.
