The University of Utah women’s basketball team has been ranked in the top 10 of the AP Top 25 for the last two months. Now, the biggest women’s basketball game in the country on Saturday is being played at the Huntsman Center.
Eighth-ranked Utes host No. 3 Stanford Saturday with the Pac-12 regular-season title potentially up for grabs.
Utah is announcing an average of 2,415 fans through 12 home games. That’s up from 1,982 a year ago. But it stands to reason this particular team — which is among the national leaders in scoring offense, scoring margin and 3-point field goal percentage — should be drawing more. Added Roberts: “The Sunday thing is a challenge. It’s because of TV, that’s when our games are on. People like to ski on their weekends, or Sunday is a family day, a church day, and I respect all of that, but it doesn’t make it any less challenging. Friday night games, we’ve done pretty well, and truthfully, Sundays this season have improved a lot. That’s just one of the variables, and it’s interesting, because in some Pac-12 communities, Sundays are their best day, but not here.
With a women’s-men’s dual-admission doubleheader taking place on both Thursday and Saturday, and with the desire to have the 8,500-seat as full as possible, a few more interesting tactics may very well help.
