Friday's snowstorm wiped out the local high school basketball schedule and an outdoor hockey game.

But Plum's wrestling team hit the Turnpike before the brunt of the storm and, after about a four-hour trip, arrived safely in New Oxford for the New Oxford Invitational.

The event, however, has been condensed to one day, Friday's action was canceled.

That left Plum's wrestlers roaming their hotel.

“Just a lot of hanging out in our rooms and playing cards,” senior 220-pounder Jake DiGuilio said.

Here is a list of Friday's postponements/cancellations with make-up dates.
