Weather suspends the 30th Mayors Cup between Wilkes University and Kings College
Summary

The 30th annual Mayors Cup between Wilkes University and Kings College was suspended on September 3, 2026, due to severe weather. Storms moved through the Wilkes-Barre area following the completion of the first quarter, forcing officials to evacuate the stadium. At the time of the suspension, the Colonels held a 7-0 lead. That advantage came after quarterback Trey Dogmantis completed a 28-yard touchdown pass to Danny Pigga on an opening-drive fourth-down attempt. The Monarchs had managed a drive into the red zone, supported by a 26-yard run from Reynaldo Carter, but ultimately fumbled the ball to Wilkes. Following the evacuation, officials observed a 30-minute delay before deciding to postpone the remainder of the contest. A makeup date for the game has not yet been announced.
