Due to travel restrictions with Tropical Storm Imelda on Texas' gulf coast, Lamar University is unable to attend the UND Classic volleyball tournament this weekend in Grand Forks.

As a result, the schedule for the tournament has been shortened.

UND will play Eastern Washington at 7 p.m. tonight., while Friday's games will include Eastern Washington vs. Akron, 12:30 p.m., with UND vs. Akron at 7:30 p.m.
