South Meck's first round playoff game last night, scheduled to be played right across the border, was postponed. The ref told me that they waited 45 minutes, observed the lightning, took their check, and went home. The girls never even warmed up.
The officials at the Fort Mill-Mauldin game did a nice job waiting it out. There was no way that Mauldin was going to step off that field and run the risk of that game getting called after 40 minutes. Not being down 0-1. I'm sure they figured, "we played the first 40 minutes through flashes of distant lightning, we'll play the last 40 under the same conditions as well".
I stand corrected.
