Long Beach State University Athletics announced the postponement of the Long Beach State women’s basketball game scheduled for Saturday, November 14, at Portland. The Federal Aviation Administration grounded all flights on Friday, causing travel complications that led to the decision to postpone the game.

The postponement of the game against Portland underscores how unforeseen external factors, such as federal travel restrictions, can disrupt college sports schedules. Although the delay poses a short-term challenge for Long Beach State women’s basketball, the opportunity to reschedule maintains the integrity of the season. The team’s focus now shifts to the November 19 contest against San Francisco, which represents a chance to regain momentum.
