WBB: American Southwest Conference

[JACKET84]

I believe each team is alloted equal amounts of tickets, but unsold tickets by the visitors are released at a designated time on Saturday for the general public.

[Ralph Turner]

I've been assured that tickets have been reserved for whoever plays HPU on Saturday, McM or Trinity.  Otherwise, I'd be worried right now from what you're saying that people in Brownwood would buy up all the seats before any visitors from outside town ever got a chance to get any!

Of course, while tickets have been reserved, there was no word about toilet paper... 

HPU has no control on the number of seats, the NCAA has guidelines as far as ticket designation. I have a feeling that the visitors will be outnumbered by just a few

Feeling?  The number of tickets to the home team is specified by the NCAA Handbook and as cited by JACKET84!

The real question is the toilet paper.   

[golfniz1]

I was told that the visitors requested 300 tickets (both Schools the same amount) and that was all very surprised about that. Please guys give the TP a rest I am sure there will be plenty for either McMurry or Trinity on hand for whatever you need it for.

And if there happens to not be enough TP:

+1!

I am relieved.  Just be sure to pay the electric bill.

The city owns the building that's their problem

With a seating capacity in excess of 4500 in the Brownwood coliseum, isn't this an outstanding problem for D-III ball?  Sort of like mentioning that your stretch hummer makes "too much noise" when you pull up to your condo in Malibu.

Thru tonight, Tarra Richardson has over 2140 points, 1005 rebounds, 300 blocks and 205 steals in her career.

Only one other player in D3 history has done 2000 points/ 1000 rebounds / 300 blocks...Ronda Jo Miller of Gallaudet in 1996-2000 seasons.



Maigen Sawyer goes over 1000 points at McMurry (plus another 23 at HSU as a freshman).

[Ralph Turner]

According to the NCAA Handbook, McMurry will be allocated 1/3 of the available tickets.

If we assume that the Brownwood Mausoleum holds 4500 people, then McMurry is allocated 1500 tickets, not 300!

I would be highly surprised if McMurry brought 1,500 fans considering they only put in a guesstimated 1,550 at their home game last night.

Hillarious!  Well done, Dballa!  Earns Karma for sure!

I resent that remark, that was an exact count! 

[dballa]

I'm sure it was pretty close to being right on or maybe even lower than the actual count.  If they would let school's count workers and little kids we could all have higher attendance numbers.  I'm sure a lot of people working the games would be at them anyways even if they had to pay.

[mcmfan]

dballa gets a karma point from me, too!

Actually, the key issue with the seating Saturday isn't just the number of tickets, but whether visitors get to sit in the bleachers next to the court.  My understanding is that while HPU can reserve them for their own students during the regular season, they have to allow access to everyone for the NCAA post-season games.  Is that correct?

[McM Blue Devil]

They way I understand the rules is that McM should be allotted 1500 and whatever they don't sell they will turn back to HPU on Saturday.

Looking forward to it should be a fun atmosphere.

Whatever happens McM will be proud of their season, we have no pressure on us, so let;s just go play
