Liberty-Appalachian State game canceled due to Hurricane Helene

Appalachian State’s home game against Liberty on Saturday has been canceled due to the impact of Hurricane Helene.

The game in Boone, N.C., will not be rescheduled, per a statement on the Mountaineers’ official website.

Hurricane Helene made landfall as a Category 4 hurricane in Florida late Thursday, but adjacent states were not spared. North Carolina governor Roy Cooper issued a state of emergency in preparation for potential flooding, damaging winds and power outages, and media in the area near Boone reported widespread flooding Friday morning.

Liberty (4-0) will return to action against visiting FIU on Oct. 8, while Appalachian State (2-2) will travel to Marshall on Oct. 5.
