Kansas State University’s soccer team was forced to adjust its schedule for the Outrigger Soccer Kickoff in Honolulu after forecasts predicted severe weather.
Storm‑Driven Rescheduling
The match, originally set for Sunday, will now be played on Saturday at 5:30 p.m. Central Standard Time, which translates to 12:30 p.m. Hawaiian Standard Time, at Lower Campus Field.
Kickoff time was chosen to fit the broadcast window on MW+, the streaming platform that will carry the game live, though viewers must have a subscription to access the feed.
The decision comes as the remnants of Tropical Storm Lala are expected to bring an 80 percent chance of heavy rain and high winds to the Honolulu area on the original date, prompting officials to prioritize safety for players and fans.
K‑State opened its 2026 campaign with a 4‑0 victory over Seattle University, leaving the team tied at 1‑0‑0 heading into the Honolulu encounter, while Hawaii sits at 0‑1‑0 after its own season‑opening loss.
Fans can expect a competitive clash under altered conditions, with both sides looking to fine‑tune their early‑season form before the remainder of the schedule unfolds.
