**Update: we will have about a 1 hour rain delay to the start of the game. I arrived in Dundas shortly before 11:00 a.m. and we had light rainfall here. According to the radar, the rain should clear up at noon or shortly thereafter. Stay tuned.
12:02 p.m. and it's still raining but it appears to be dissipating. I expect the players to take the field shortly.
