ATLANTA - The University of Vermont softball team will have to wait until Saturday to take part in the Georgia Tech Classic as rain caused the first day of competition to be cancelled. Saturday will follow the original schedule and then Friday's pool games will be played on Sunday.

Vermont opens with Akron on Saturday at 1:00pm and then plays Western Carolina at 3:30pm. The Cats will now face Samford on Sunday at 1:30pm, followed by Winthrop at 3:30pm. Bracket play has been cancelled and the tournament champion will be based on results from pool play and tie-breaker scenarios.
