Hilton Magic for the Women

  • After Iowa State won the Big 12, a Cyclone made a wonderful offer to We Will that now increases our match. Now all gifts up to $400,000 between now and the Final 4 will be matched. Please consider giving at We Will Collective.

How about we try to dial up the Hilton Magic for the Women's BB team on Saturday (and Monday)?

Let's help Stanford's concerns about "leaving their 3000 fans out" be realized! After our incredible fan support in Kansas City for the Men's Big 12 tournament, it is time for Hilton North to show its Magic two more times this season, especially with the students on break.

Saturday 3pm v. Florida State.

Monday TBA v. Stanford/South Dakota.

Wouldn't it be awesome to pack Hilton for the women?

It was pretty awesome in the Frese/Taylor/Welle/Haugen/Gahan era.

NCAA WBB ATTENDANCE RECORDS

FIRST ROUND, SINGLE SESSION
#3 - 13,617 (Hilton Coliseum, 3-17-00)
#6 - 12,337 (Hilton Coliseum, 3-12-99)
#8 - 11,462 (Hilton Coliseum, 3-16-01)

SECOND ROUND
#3 - 13,478 (Hilton Coliseum, 3-19-00)
#9 - 11,756 (Hilton Coliseum, 3-18-01)
#10 - 11,719 (Hilton Coliseum, 3-14-99)

The announced attendance for NCAA games is a much truer barometer of butts in seats than the regular-season numbers, because NCAA numbers don't include Jr. Cyclone Club passes, etc.

If South Dakota gets ISU's crowd behind them, might there be an upset? Or a closer game that makes the starters a little more tired. Sounds like there will be a good following from SD anyway for the game.

Anyone know how this is selling? The last couple of times we've hosted, the attendance hasn't been great. Good for most schools, but not for ISU. Those records from 2000 stood for several years. It would be fantastic to see those numbers again, and to know that there was virtually zero difference between "turnstile" and "announced" attendance.

I really hope we win on Saturday so that we also get to play against Stanford on Monday. Cut down the tree.
