Gonzaga-Pittsburgh game in Japan canceled due to slippery floor
Posted Nov 13, 2015
For the third time in three years, college basketball has had a game prematurely end due to slippery conditions on the court. But unlike previous cancellations, this game wasn't played outdoors/on a United States Naval ship. The Armed Forces Classic tilt between Gonzaga and Pittsburgh was held under a roof in Japan, at the United States Marine Corps' Camp Foster, in Okinawa.
