"Given the current track of Tropical Storm Nate, we have made several changes to our weekend schedule of athletics events," said Troy Dannen, Ben Weiner Director of Athletics Chair at Tulane. "These changes have been made to help ensure the safety of our student-athletes, fans, staff and opposing schools scheduled to travel to and from New Orleans. Additionally, we want to ensure all first responders are available if needed elsewhere and not otherwise committed to our athletics events."
