The UCF Knights will not start their NCAA Tournament trip on time.

Due to uncooperative weather in the area, their Auburn Regional opener against North Carolina State has been pushed back to 7:06 p.m. on May 29. First pitch at Plainsman Park was originally scheduled for 6 p.m.

The winner will move on to a Saturday showdown against Milwaukee, which stunned the host Tigers 13-8 earlier in the afternoon. That game saw a brief delay, too. No rain fell, but lightning was detected within an eight-mile radius, forcing a 30-minute stoppage.

According to the National Weather Service, there is a 70% chance of evening precipitation in Auburn, Alabama. Showers and thunderstorms are likely before 7 p.m., and a separate storm is possible between 7 and 10.
