What a crowd Rider got last night in Trenton for 'Nova. I'm guessing that 'Nova fans dominated the crowd, but I'm sure Rider had their fair share. This is the kind of crowd we dream of getting at Harbor Yards, I would love to know how they marketed the game and what % was actually Rider fans. Maybe we could learn something from them.

Nova was the home team, and when you are number 4 in the country people will travel 40 minutes to see you play.

I would put the crowd at closer to 6000, with about 2500 for Rider. Nova was the home team but I would rather play them at the SBA and at Nova then just one guarantee game at Nova. They are a very very good team their guards are impossible to defend. When Rider streched the zone out they drove to the hoop and scored when they packed the zone in Nova hit the 3.

Think we once got 9,000 or so for a game at our place - it was for UConn women vs. somebody else, though.
I'd be estatic if we could get 7,200 to a FU game - our fans or not.
