83rd Senbatsu Cancelled?

(Hat tip Gen @ YakyuBaka)

It appears that there is a chance that senbatsu could be canceled due to the Great Tohoku Earthquake. Nothing is decided yet, although we would find out by the 18th at the latest.

I would think that they would consider postponing it in the hopes that things would settle down enough later, and I would think that having Koshien would bring a sense of normalcy, but at the same time canceling it in respect of the people and the situation is completely understandable.
