Northern Illinois University has announced the cancellation of all athletics events, home and away, the Huskies were scheduled to compete in this weekend. The announcement came after a gunman entered a campus lecture hall Thursday and killed five students and himself.

The canceled events include a home women's basketball game against Ohio scheduled for Saturday at 2 p.m. and a home men's basketball game against Western Michigan scheduled for Sunday at 3 p.m. The Northern Illinois football team will also not have its planned Junior Day event Sunday.

The Northern Illinois women's track and field, women's gymnastics, men's and women's tennis, wrestling and men's golf teams have all canceled plans to travel to away games this weekend.
