MEMPHIS - Due to inclement weather, the final game of a three-game softball series between the University of Memphis and East Carolina on Sunday has been canceled. The game will not be rescheduled.

This is the second-straight year the series finale with East Carolina has been canceled due to weather. Last year the third game was called off in Greenville, N.C.

The cancellation ended the Tigers (24-26, 4-15) 2008 home season as the team will conclude the regular season next week, May 3-4, at Tulsa. Memphis will then compete in the Conference USA Championships beginning on Thursday, May 8, in Houston, Texas.
