St. Bonaventure vs. Rhode Island Postponed — Rhode Island Basketball Travel Disruption Moves Tip to Thursday 5 p.m.

The rescheduled date for the St. Bonaventure matchup matters most to traveling personnel and fans who had plans for the original session: Rhode Island Basketball's travel was disrupted by inclement weather, forcing the game to move to Thursday at 5 p. m. ET. That change affects ticketing decisions, travel arrangements and how supporters follow the matchup this week.

Rhode Island Basketball: who feels the impact first and what they can do

Here’s the part that matters for most readers: attendees and the visiting party face the immediate friction of a late schedule change. Single-game tickets purchased for the original date will be honored for the new slot on Thursday. Fans can also transfer their tickets to the Bonnies' final home game against Davidson on Saturday, March 7 at no extra charge, or request a refund by contacting the St. Bonaventure Ticket Office at 375-2500.

What's easy to miss is how a single travel delay ripples across operations—transport, lodging, staffing and streaming logistics all get a compressed window to adjust. The real test will be whether the visiting travel party can rebook without additional disruption.

Event details and practical schedule notes

Officials announced Tuesday that, because inclement weather affected Rhode Island's travel, the men's basketball game against the Rams has been postponed to Thursday (Feb. 26) at 5 p. m. ET at the Reilly Center. The announcement identified the university's vice president and director of athletics as the messenger for the change.

• Rescheduled tipoff: Thursday, Feb. 26 — 5 p. m. ET at the Reilly Center.
• Ticket policy: original single-game tickets honored for the new date; free transfer option to Saturday, March 7 final home game versus Davidson; refunds available the ticket office at 375-2500.
• Access: the game will be available on the announced streaming service and through the team's audio network for listeners.

If you had travel or plans tied to the original date, reach the ticket office for transfer or refund help; rebooking travel and lodging now will reduce last-minute costs and stress.

Mini timeline:

• Tuesday: Athletic leadership announced postponement caused by inclement weather impacting travel.
• Thursday, Feb. 26 — 5 p. m. ET: Rescheduled game at the Reilly Center.
• Saturday, March 7: Final home game (opportunity to transfer tickets) against Davidson.

The real question now is how quickly travel and logistics will settle into the new timetable and whether attendance patterns change because of the shift; ticket transfer and refund options are in place to accommodate that uncertainty.

Editor’s aside: It’s easy to overlook that ticket transferability to a later marquee home game gives fans a flexible, no-cost alternative—an operational choice that softens the immediate disruption for many supporters.
