This win should give us at least a CIT berth.

I was shocked when I saw that 2148 attendance figure.  The south bleachers were packed (thanks in part to the football team,) the red seats were much more thickly occupied than usual, and significant people in the east and west bleachers.  Definitely in the 3500 range.  Like most mid-majors, we lie to enhance attendance figures.  Why we would lie in the opposition direction, I have no idea.

Unless they only counted the paid customers.i don’t know if they kept tracked of the students who could get in by just showing their ID.

A maturing team that played like they wanted to make a statement and did.   These guys have played a lot of college basketball and the soph/jr class are now men.  No time to celebrate with 3 tough games coming up.

BINGO!!
Paid admission. 

Lots of tickets throughout the season get donated to different businesses and such to hand out, and to schools for different types of programs.
