Five of the current top-50 are not slated to play on Feb. 20 (but will play later in the weekend): [12] South Carolina (ppd, now will play Sat. DH), [27] Liberty, [31] Florida International, [34] Georgia Tech and [49] St. John’s. Another top-50 team, [39] Tennessee, will be playing on Fri. but does not have any games scheduled on Feb. 21-22 (several others will not play on Sunday).
The continuing weather issues on the east coast have led to several top-50 teams getting creative with their scheduling – most notably with [2] Virginia, which will be playing at four different venus in the Charleston, S.C., area this weekend (Bishop England HS; Charleston Southern; College of Charleston; and Riley Park).
All CB360 Top-50 games for the second weekend are listed below – check back to this page all weekend for final scores, all on this one convenient page. Also be sure to follow along via Twitter, at @CB360updates.
