Falcon Men Stranded by Fog, Postpone Soccer Match at Humboldt
October 22, 2005

REDDING, Calif. (Oct. 22) ­ Saturday's men's soccer game between Seattle Pacific University and Humboldt State was postponed after dense fog stranded the No. 5-ranked Falcons at Redding's airport since Friday afternoon.

Flights into Eureka were canceled due to the fog and SPU coach Cliff McCrath said the lack of visibility in that area also made it impossible to arrange for a charter bus from Redding to Arcata, where the Great Northwest Athletic Conference game was scheduled for 12 p.m.

McCrath added that there was no assurance that his team could get in or out of the Eureka-Arcata area before Monday. It is uncertain whether the game will be rescheduled.

Seattle Pacific (10-2-3) is next scheduled to play Grand Canyon in Phoenix Thursday night (Oct. 27).
