Doesn't that gym seat like 2,000 fans? Not hard to sell that place out. Now if Ft Hays or UCM were sold out. It would actually be impressive. Speaking of, is NWMSU ever going to build a new basketball facility?

Unfortunately a new facility probably isn't coming. And I think NW could sellout a bigger arena is this situation.

Building a new larger BB facility for NW would be crazy when attendance average of around 1200.

Especially after the Bearcats win a National Championship this year, McCollum takes a low-major D1 job this offseason, Pitts decides to forego his senior year to play pro ball in Europe, and the program experiences a gradual-but-painful decline over the next several years.

that's wildly wrecklessly optimistic

Hence the "(Kidding Bearcat fans.)" at the end. And the smiley face.

Honestly, once Pitts is gone, I would hope this is a rivalry that continues. As Billeter noted I think in the post-game press conference, the Vikings have played NWMSU more times in the past 3 years than several, if not most, of our North Division in-conference opponents. It's a fun matchup, especially with such clashing styles. Unfortunately, we didn't have the talent this year to overcome NWMSU's talent, but it'll be fun to see how things shake out over the next few years if the Augie/NWMSU matchups continue.

if memory serves me the old wooden bleachers held between 2500-3000.

I love fun facts like that.

Probably not, but is there any possibility for seat expansion in the current arena?
