I was checking the IUPUI-Hofstra box score from last night and their attendance was only 952 but for Princeton to have only 665 is bad. Spring break or not. As a season ticket holder there was a chance to get two home games in a tournament. Princeton never had that chance before and may never again. If we had just 1,500 we would probably be having another home game. I checked 5 IUPUI box scores during the season at home and three times they had 1,000 fans one time 1,100 and one time 1,200. Thanks Jon for getting the word out but I guess our hardcore fan base is just to small.

Mentions McCaffery, Chris Mooney and Steve Donahue as potential candidates.

This could get interesting.

Harry,

The IUPUI gym only *holds* 1,200 so those are all pretty close to sell outs!
