The weekend softball schedule at Symms Field has been altered dramatically, due to weather issues across the Cascade Conference.

Eastern Oregon's home diamond at Anderson Field is unplayable, with the Mountaineers striking a deal with the Yotes to also host their league games this weekend in Caldwell.

Thus, Friday's doubleheader between the Lady Yotes and Concordia will begin at 1 p.m. (instead of the originially scheduled 2 p.m.), with Eastern's twinbill with Northwest Christian to follow at 5 p.m.
