Weather in the Pacific Northwest continues to cause softball coaches in the Cascade Conference to alter schedules - including the Lady Yotes trip this weekend.

Instead of a Friday-Saturday road swing, The C of I will play a doubleheader at Southern Oregon on Sunday morning, followed by a Monday twinbill at Oregon Tech.  Both will begin at 11 a.m. (PT)

The rescheduling adds to two other doubleheaders this season that have been moved to new dates - April 10 at Eastern Oregon and April 17 vs. Northwest Nazarene in Caldwell.
