Weather derails softball series

The Irish were supposed to play their first home games of the season over the weekend, but all three games against Pittsburgh were postponed due to weather.

Atlantic Coast Conference policy sets a minimum temperature at which games can be played. The high temperature on Saturday was 47 degrees Fahrenheit, with temperatures dipping into the 30s, and the mercury remained below freezing for all of Sunday.

According to und.com, officials are unsure if the three-game set will be rescheduled for later in the season.

If weather permits, of course, the No. 24/25 Irish will host No. 23 Northwestern at 6 p.m. Tuesday at Melissa Cook Stadium.
