Pitt and Gonzaga were in Okinawa to open their season Friday night in the Armed Forces Classic, but the game just wasn't meant to be. With conditions in the gym hot and humid the court conditions were not very safe. Several times players from both teams slipped and hit the court. One, Pitt's James Robinson, hit the court so hard it cur his cheek open.
Having no air-condition didn't help. They tried to place large fans around the court to make up for it, but it just wasn't enough. As a result, the refs decided to call the game at the half. Due to the busy schedules of both teams the game will not be made up.
