RENSSELAER, Ind. - A power outage in the Scharf Alumni Fieldhouse on Thursday night has caused the men’s basketball game between Northern Kentucky University and Saint Joseph’s to be suspended late in the second half.

Saint Joseph’s owned a 57-40 lead with 6:30 remaining in the game when the power went out in the gym. The Pumas entered the game ranked No. 8 nationally with a 7-0 record, while NKU is also unbeaten (6-0).

The game will be resumed at the point of stoppage later in the season. The most likely date to complete the game is Feb. 22, but an official announcement will be made next week.

NKU will play at Brigham Young at 9 p.m. Saturday in Provo, Utah.
