The WPIAL boys basketball Class 2A first-round playoff game between California and Springdale, originally listed on the WPIAL's bracket for 8:30 p.m. Tuesday at North Hills, instead will take place at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday at Gateway.
Instead of playing the third game of a scheduled tripleheader at North Hills, the Trojans and Dynamos will play the first half of a doubleheader at Gateway. The second Gateway game, scheduled for 8 p.m., pits McKeesport and Armstrong in a Class 5A first-round matchup.
The two remaining games at North Hills on Tuesday also were adjusted. Leechburg's Class 2A first-round boys game against Fort Cherry now is scheduled for an 8 p.m. tip — not 5:30, as originally listed. A Class 6A girls first-round game between Butler and Upper St. Clair is scheduled for 6:30 p.m.
