ST. JOSEPH – The Missouri Western soccer team will host Northwest Missouri State on Friday afternoon after weather forced the game to be moved to Craig Field at Spratt Memorial Stadium.

The game was originally scheduled to be played at 5 p.m. on Friday in Maryville, but will now be played at 2:30 p.m. in St. Joseph. It will count as a home game for the Griffons, but is still considered a non-conference game.

It will be the third consecutive game in the stadium for both teams. Heavy rains in northwest Missouri forced the Bearcats to move their last two non-conference games to Spratt Stadium. Missouri Western enters Friday’s rivalry match up 2-1 on the season. Northwest Missouri is also 2-1, with both of its wins coming last week at Spratt Stadium.
