App State-Liberty canceled due to flooding from Hurricane Helene

Appalachian State canceled its scheduled game Saturday against Liberty due to the impact of Hurricane Helene near its campus in Boone, N.C.

The game will not be rescheduled, and the school said in a release it will distribute information on ticket holder compensation as soon as it is available. 

The main area of downtown Boone area was completely flooded Friday morning, with video circulating of water flowing down King Street not far from campus. 

The university went into adverse weather protocol on Thursday, moving classes online and telling non-mandatory employees not to report to work. Several events around the school’s Fall Family Weekend were also cancelled, including the school’s 125th anniversary and Founder’s Day celebration.
