KCACsports.com reports that today's men's and women's games versus St. Mary's in Leavenworth KS were postponed, as were the Friends at Tabor games in Hillsboro KS. Women's games between KWU/Ottawa and Bethel/Bethany were played, so probably the men's games for those schools will also be played.

This may explain why the games in Leavenworth and Hillsboro were not played:
