WCBB: Ole Miss to play Vanderbilt in Birmingham due to lingering effects of winter storm

posted in: Mississippi News | 0

The Ole Miss women’s basketball team has announced another schedule change.

Coach Yolett McPhee-McCuin and company will face No. 5 Vanderbilt on Friday at Legacy Arena in Birmingham, Ala., with tipoff set for 2 p.m. CT. The game was originally scheduled to be played in Oxford on Thursday night but was moved due to the lingering effects of Winter Storm Fern in north Mississippi.

The update comes after the Lady Rebels postponed Monday’s matchup against Tennessee to a date that has yet to be announced.

Admission to Friday’s game will be free of charge, but for those unable to make it, the matchup will be broadcast on SEC Network+. Ole Miss (17-4, 4-2 SEC) most recently followed up a rough loss at Georgia two weekends ago with a dominant win versus Missouri this past Thursday.

On the men’s side of the aisle, Chris Beard’s Rebels have a game scheduled against Vanderbilt inside the SJB Pavilion on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. CT. No official announcement has been made regarding the status of that contest.
