Elon Women’s Softball Home Opener With UNC Cancelled

ELON, N.C. – Due to inclement weather in the forecast on Wednesday, Feb. 12, the home opener for the Elon University softball team against North Carolina at 4 p.m. has been cancelled.

The game will be rescheduled for Thursday, March 27, at 5:30 p.m. in Hunt Softball Park at BB&T Field. This will be the Tar Heels first-ever visit to the Phoenix’s new stadium since it was opened last season.

Elon (3-0-1) went undefeated in its season-opening weekend at the Charleston Southern Tournament with wins against UNC Wilmington and a pair of victories against Maryland Eastern Shore on Feb. 8-9. The Phoenix concluded the tournament with a 5-5 tie against host Charleston Southern, which was called because of darkness.

The maroon and gold will travel to its second early-season tournament this weekend, the Hatter Invitational, hosted by Stetson on Feb. 14-15.
