UConn vs. Seton Hall Game Rescheduled

The UConn Huskies have had a great season so far, but they'll have a change to their schedule for an upcoming game.

UConn announced in a press release that their upcoming game vs. Seton Hall at Walsh Gymnasium in South Orange, N.J. was moved a day early due to inclement weather. This moves the game from the original noon tip-off on Jan. 25 to a noon tip-off on Jan. 24.

The game will still take place on streaming Peacock and television with NBC Sports Network.

Both teams are at the top of the Big East and will now play one day earlier in one of the bigger conference games this season.

Why Was the UConn Game Moved Back a Day?

The forecast for this weekend shows the biggest storm of the winter, which will impact states all across the continental United States.

This storm begins all the way down in the southwest in Texas and Oklahoma on Jan. 22, which will go from New Mexico to Virginia with winter weather coming on Jan. 24.

Heavy snow is the cause for concern, which will start during the weekend, but mostly on Jan. 25, hitting the northeast. Ice is also a potential issue with the cold temperatures and the stomr should last through the weekend into Jan. 26.

This will impact travel for the Huskies going to face the Pirates, which is why they moved the game earlier, so that they will try and avoid the inclement weather.

Big Time Matchup in the Big East

UConn has been the best team in women's basketball this season at 19-0 and 9-0 in Big East play and is looking to keep their winning streak going.
