The start time for Robert Morris’ scheduled Horizon League men’s basketball game against Green Bay on Saturday at UPMC Events Center was moved up an hour to 1 p.m., RMU has announced.
The change was made in anticipation of a snowstorm expected to arrive in the region Saturday night.
A university spokesman said UPMC Events Center doors will now open an hour earlier at noon.
