San Diego:

Although the National Football League will hold its game Sunday at Qualcomm Stadium, most of the county’s organized outdoor athletic activity ground to a halt Saturday.

The San Diego Unified School District canceled all athletic activity during the weekend. San Diego State University postponed several athletic events, including a Saturday football game against Brigham Young University at Qualcomm. That game is scheduled to be played Dec. 1 at Qualcomm.

San Diego State postponed men’s and women’s soccer matches, a cross-country meet and swimming, diving and volleyball competitions. The university plans to reschedule the events or move them to alternative locations.
