Your 2010-2011 NCAA Rule Book has Lightning Guidelines
at the back of the book on page 97.

Read the Guidelines, basically a 30 minute period of no lightning is required before the match is resumed. This applies to all levels of NCAA play.

These are similar to USSF Guidelines which apply to Junior College matches. Err on the side of safety.
