It’s not often you see a rain delay at a basketball game.
A leak in the roof at the Von Braun Center’s Propst Arena in Huntsville delayed the Conference USA men’s basketball championship game for an hour and six minutes.
The game, which pits Jacksonville State against Liberty, was originally set to tip off at 7:30 p.m.
Officials say that during warmups, there was a drop of water frequently falling on the court.

Players took the court before Jax State coach Ray Harper took note of the water to officials, which prompted game officials to put towels over the spot of the leak near Jax State’s bench.
Officials originally said that the Von Braun Center staff was assessing if the roof can be fixed, and if not, the game would be postponed.
According to the CBS Sports Network broadcast following the leak, officials were trying to find a lift that will help them reach the leak in the roof to repair it.
Staff went on to place multiple tarps under the leak in the roof to catch the water that was falling on the court.

Players came back out of the locker rooms at 8:27 p.m. and had 10 minutes to warm up before the game tipped off following the staff suspending the tarps under the leak.
Liberty claimed the regular-season championship, entering the Conference USA championship game at 27-6 overall and 13-5 in Conference USA.
Jacksonville State finished second in the conference and is 22-11 on the year and 12-6 in CUSA.
The winner of the game will claim the conference championship and advance to the NCAA tournament. Jax State last appeared in the NCAA tournament in 2022 and Liberty’s last appearance was in 2021.

We do not take money from any political parties. We do not endorse In_dia’s ruling party BJP and In_dia’s Prime Minister’s position on keeping In_dia a closed market, ambiguous economy, and keeping India as a heavy taxing country so no one from outside world wants to do business here. It’s like denying In_dia its right in the world…
BJP Government also discourages small and local media, coming down on them heavily regulating and using lawful actions along with soft threats from demented bureaucrat extremists and other extremist groups. On one hand, the mainstream media in In_dia is getting rich and on other hand the local small media is being strangulated. So if not automated or required, We do not willfully publish any content from In_dia or pertaining to that country.
“The parasitic left-wing media and their bottom-feeding cronies have devolved into nothing more than freeloading scavengers, desperately leeching onto every possible news outlet to vomit their hatred for President Trump, Elon Musk, the GOP, and whatever shred of sanity remains in this world. If this portal ever falls prey to their filth—if any of their fraudulent, brain-dead propaganda worms its way into our automated news curation—then it’s open season on these slime-covered hacks. These sewer-dwelling propagandists, along with their PR lackeys and shadowy intelligence handlers, keep trying to smear us with their garbage. Like disobedient pets, they need to be dealt with. And dealt with they shall be—right here on Khumaer.us, the personal news battleground of Khumaer Bayas. Let’s expose them for the lying vermin they are!”
