The Thursday night University of Missouri-St. Louis men’s and women’s basketball games against Great Lakes Valley Conference rival Drury University have been moved to Friday.

The women’s teams were supposed to play at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, but now will play at 4 p.m. on Friday. The men’s teams were scheduled to play at 7:30 p.m., Thursday, but will now play immediately after the women’s game ends on Friday.

UMSL’s schedule for Saturday has been altered as well.

Both Triton ballclubs were supposed to play the men’s and women’s teams from Southwest Baptist that day. Those games are still on, but they will now be played later in the day.

The women’s game between UMSL and Southwest Baptist will now be played at 4 p.m., with the men’s game scheduled to follow immediately afterward.
