There was a miscommunication between myself (Mr. Hauser) and Manhattan's junior high AD. On my end I had us traveling to Manhattan Friday the 19th, unfortunately Manhattan had Thursday the 18th (today) down on their end. I found this out late last night and it seemed a little to late to try and play the game today so we have to cancel the game. We will be rescheduling the game at a later date after Thanksgiving break. Sorry for any inconvenience.
