LEWISBURG, Pa. - Sunday's men's water polo game between Bucknell and Johns Hopkins has been changed to 2 p.m. The game, which will be played at the Newton H. White Athletic Center on the Blue Jays' Baltimore, Md., campus was originally scheduled for 4 p.m.
The Bison, who are ranked 17th nationally, fell to No. 12 Princeton 8-4 Tuesday night. They are 8-13 overall and are 4-2 in CWPA Southern Division play. Johns Hopkins enters the weekend with a 14-5 record. The Blue Jays are ranked No. 1 in the latest Division III poll, and they are 20th in the national top 20 poll, which spans all divisions.

They will face Navy Friday at 8 p.m. in Annapolis, Md. The following day the Bison will take on Salem International at 5:30 p.m., also in Annapolis.
