Storm cancels sporting events
By Joseph White
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — : Except for the twice-
delayed Maryland-Wake Forest showdown, the
only major sports in the mid-Atlantic region
Monday were sledding and snow-shoveling.
A weekend storm that dumped up to 4 feet of
snow wiped out many Presidents Day sporting
events, including numerous college basketball
games and a Washington Wizards game on
Michael Jordan’s 40th birthday.
The Wizards’ holiday matinee against the
Toronto Raptors was rescheduled for March 4.
The evening game at the MCI Center — No. 7
Pittsburgh at Georgetown — was rescheduled for
Tuesday night.
Two other Big East games were called off:
Villanova at Seton Hall and Miami at Providence.
Other Division I men’s basketball postponements
included Florida A&M at Howard, South Carolina
State at Delaware State, Ohio at Akron,
Chattanooga at Virginia Military, Appalachian
State at Wofford and East Tennessee State at
North Carolina-Greensboro.
Maryland and Wake Forest postponed their
first-place Atlantic Coast Conference battle from
Sunday night to Monday afternoon at 4 p.m. The
tipoff was then moved back to 5 p.m. as school
officials worked to properly staff the Comcast
Center and make it safe for the fans.
Wake Forest arrived in College Park on Friday,
anticipating the storm, and the officials also were
in town. An exception was made to the ACC rule
stating that a game should be played if both teams
and the officials can make it to the arena.
The storm was the worst to hit the mid-
Atlantic and central Appalachian states in seven
years. It caused at least 16 deaths and left 49
inches of snow in Maryland’s Garrett County in
the central Appalachians.
Washington’s Reagan National airport was closed
Monday. Baltimore-Washington International.
Airport, which recorded its second-highest snowfall
total ever, was attempting to reopen Monday
evening. Dulles International Airport managed to
keep at least one runway open and had very limited
commercial traffic.
Horse racing at Laurel Park in Maryland was
postponed Sunday and Monday. Maryland offi
cials were forced to shuffle the two biggest races
of the winter meet, the Barbara Fritchie Handicap
and the General George Handicap. Both $200,000
events were moved to Saturday.
The racing card at Philadelphia Park was can
celed Sunday and Monday. Aqueduct abandoned
Sunday’s card after one race and postponed
Monday racing. Racing at the New York track was
halted Sunday after temperatures dipped to 13
degrees. The $75,000 Rare Treat, scheduled for
Monday, will be run Wednesday.
