Numerous games were pushed up to Thursday night in hopes of avoiding the storm and ending their season early to hold up safety measures. Many teams ended up playing back-to-back games without any preparation.
Hermon/John Bapst was the only matchup to not be pushed up to Thursday due to the Auditorium being used by the Bangor/Brewer contingency. It was the final Class A matchup at the Mecca of Maine Basketball. This was poor decision making on the part of these two schools.
The potential safety hazards that come with a giant storm like Nemo are immaculate and need to be taken very seriously. If need be, they shouldn't be opposed to moving the game back to Sunday, since the storm should last through most of Saturday after dumping 12-20 inches on our heads.
Hopefully everyone attending the game, including myself since I am being called upon to broadcast it, will drive safely and take the roads slow.
