All Utah State University athletic events for the rest of the week have been canceled or postponed, it was announced Thursday.

In a mutual decision with Fresno State, the football game between the two universities scheduled for Saturday will be moved to 1 p.m. (Mountain Time) Dec. 1 at Fresno, Calif.

Meanwhile, USU's soccer team will not travel to Weber State for a Saturday game that was added to the schedule Wednesday, after USU games against Delaware and Wisconsin-Green Bay were canceled. In addition, the Aggies' men's and women's cross country teams will not compete at the Montana State Invitational, originally scheduled for Saturday.

"In light of information we have received this morning, we believe it is in the best interest of our student-athletes and fans that we postponed all events for this weekend," said Fresno State Interim Athletics Direcror Scott Johnson. "We made the decision yesterday to play, based on President Bush's wishes for a return to normalcy; however, after discussions with our fellow WAC members, we will halt all activities planned for this weekend. We will stand with our WAC brethren."

USU President Kermit L. Hall said, "In deference to the national tragedy, it is inappropriate for Utah State University to compete in any athletic contest until the national period of mourning has ended."

USU head football coach Mick Dennehy canceled Thursday's practice and said a decision on practice for the rest of the week would be made each day.
