NORTHWESTERN – MCNEESE STATE FOOTBALL GAME CANCELLED

With the threat of heavy wind and rains from Hurricane Rita, officials from Northwestern Oklahoma State University and McNeese State University agreed to cancel Saturday’s football game in Lake Charles, La.

“The safety of the players from both schools is paramount,” said Dr. Paul Beran, university president. “I appreciate the professionalism of McNeese State’s administration in handling this situation. Hopefully, there will be an opportunity to play McNeese in future seasons.”

The Rangers will get back on schedule Saturday, October 1, when Northwestern will meet up with New Mexico Highlands University at Ranger Field for a 1 p.m. kickoff.
