What could go wrong?   Nebraska playing an unranked team in Wrigley Stadium that started at 8pm local time.

Court is built on a platform in the middle of Wrigley Stadium.   Televised on Fox.   High humidity.   I'm reading about it in real time on a message board.  Not motivated enough to turn on my TV.

Dew Point has been reached or something happened just when match started.  Players slipping all over the place.  One poster said it was like them skating on ice.  A few plays into the match and it was paused.

All the players wiping the court with towels.  Then an army of maintenance employees show up with leaf blowers.  Play has been stopped for 40 minutes as of this post.  Announcers trying to fill time with much about nothing.

Someone can fill in the ending of the story.  I'm headed for bed.

Match suspended at I think 11-7. Not sure if it is eventually finished somewhere/when that is not Wrigley or if it just never finishes.

Statement on the Nebraska website:
"Due to weather conditions affecting the court surface, Sunday's volleyball match between Nebraska and Missouri has been suspended. 
Despite best efforts and in collaboration with all parties, rescheduling at Wrigley Field is not possible. 
A decision on match continuation at the point of suspension will be announced at a later date."

ETA:  This article says the coaches will decide about resuming the match at some point, not this week.
