Weather forces Northwestern open practice inside, closed to fans, off of Big Ten Network

Due to concerns over the weather, Northwestern's open practice scheduled for this Saturday has been moved indoors and taken off of the Big Ten Network, per the Northwestern official Twitter account on Thursday afternoon:

10-3 last season.

0-2 vs. Mother Nature in April.#B1GCats Saturday practice moved indoors, unfortunately will not be on BTN as a result.

While there doesn't appear to be rain in the forecast, sub-40 degree temperatures are forecasted.

Unfortunately, this also means that Northwestern fans will not be able to see the team practice this spring, as this is the last scheduled open practice of the spring season and last Saturday's practice was moved inside due to weather as well.

A team spokesman told Inside NU that media will still have access to the practice, so we'll have our regularly scheduled coverage of the event this weekend. If we hear more, we'll be sure to update this post.
