Black Hills State University football has announced the cancelation of its first two originally scheduled games of the 2020 season and added a Sept. 3 game at Drake.

Due to the NAIA canceling of all fall non-conference games, the previously scheduled Sept. 3 game at Dickenson State has been canceled.

Additionally, the Sept. 12 home opener with William Jewell College has been canceled in order to comply with the NCAA DII football schedule limit of 10 games for the 2020 season. BHSU will now host William Jewell in 2022 in addition to already being scheduled to travel there in 2021.

The Yellow Jackets will now open their 2020 season Sept. 3 at Drake in Des Moines, Iowa. Kickoff time is still to be determined.

BHSU's Sept. 19 hosting of Colorado State University-Pueblo will now serve as the team's home opener with kickoff scheduled for 1 p.m.

The addition of Drake rounds out the Yellow Jacket football schedule at 10 games. The 2020 conference schedule remains as scheduled.
