Yesterday, Hope officials pushed back this evening’s scheduled game with visiting Alma due to lingering COVID 19 issues with the Flying Dutchmen, issues that caused last week’s contests with visiting Adrian and at Albion to be postponed. The match with the Scots at DeVos Fieldhouse will now be played on Friday night, with broadcast time at 5:40 PM on The Lakeshore’s 92 7 The Van.
