The Ole Miss women’s basketball team is postponing its home matchup against Tennessee due to the effects of Winter Storm Fern.
Ole Miss announced Sunday that Monday’s top-25 battle between the No. 18 Lady Rebels (17-4, 4-2 SEC) and the No. 17 Lady Volunteers (14-3, 6-0 SEC) will be rescheduled to a later date, one that has not yet been decided on. The update comes as inclement weather and heavy ice caused trees to fall, power lines to come down, and road conditions to become unsafe, prompting Mayor Robyn Tannehill to issue a shelter-in-place order on Sunday morning.
Due to inclement weather, the Tennessee at Ole Miss women’s basketball game scheduled for Monday, January 26, has been postponed. The game will be rescheduled for a date to be determined.
Rebel Nation, please stay safe and warm.
