Published at | Updated at(NEW YORK) — A women’s basketball team stranded on a bus for more than a day during a massive snowstorm in upstate New York turned to social media to keep morale up, and to keep fans posted.
The Niagara University team was returning from a game in Pittsburgh late Monday when they got stuck on the New York State Thruway near Buffalo, as several feet of snow pounded the area.
Things started to get bad Tuesday around 2 a.m., and the bus had to stop, Niagara players and coaches said.
Five hours later, players tweeted that they were still stuck:
