ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – Central Oklahoma is scheduled to begin MIAA play this weekend at Missouri Western and the schools have adjusted the schedule due to expected winter weather.
The series will now begin Thursday, Feb. 26 at 3 p.m., with the second game Friday, Feb. 27 at 2 p.m., and the series finale Saturday, Feb. 28 at 1 p.m. The one-day shift ahead on the calendar avoids expected winter weather on Sunday.

Missouri Western is 5-8 this season and 0-3 in the MIAA. The Griffons are 5-2 at home on the year.
