On a side note the scoreboard at Rathert Field did was not operable Saturday night. Officials worked on the scorebox that is used in the press box to control the scoreboard, but were unsuccessful in their efforts to return it to service.

Officials at this point do not know the cause of the problem, but earlier in the day on Saturday there were major power outages in Junction City for a short time. Westar Energy confirmed that trees got into a main power line on 12th Street, causing the outages. It is unknown if that might have impacted the scoreboard at nearby Rathert Field or if there another problem.
