Another Condors game postponed

The Bakersfiel­d Condors announced Friday morning that their road game at the Ontario Reign, previously scheduled for Friday night, would be postponed.

The Condors had already faced an extended layoff as a result of the rescheduli­ng of a pair of road games in Abbotsford, British Columbia, due to immense flooding in the province. That break was extended by one more day due to “a malfunctio­n of the ice-making equipment” in Ontario’s Toyota Arena, the American Hockey League stated.

News of the postponeme­nt came just over two hours after the Condors tweeted, “Hey — remember us? After nine days off, we’re back tonight in Ontario.”

A reschedule­d date was not immediatel­y announced. The Condors are currently slated to return to Ontario Jan. 2 (prior to the postponed Abbotsford games) and March 18.

Ontario last hosted a game Monday against Stockton. The Reign won, 5-3. The arena also played host to a G League basketball game Tuesday and a concert Wednesday. Ontario’s game Saturday against San Jose was also postponed.

Bakersfiel­d, meanwhile, now will have gone 10 days between games heading into tonight’s Teddy Bear Toss matchup against the San Diego Gulls at Mechanics Bank Arena. The Condors’ last game was a 4-3 loss to San Jose on Nov. 17.

After beating Fullerton on Tuesday, the top-seeded Renegades’ women’s volleyball team is hosting ninth-seeded Orange Coast for a second-round playoff game today at 6 p.m. If the Renegades win, they advance to the state championsh­ip tournament in Fresno. Tickets will be available and the game will also be livestream­ed online.
