    Utica alone would likely send close to 1800. Genny might as well. But Buffalo is quite a haul from Northfield, and Hobart (inexplicably) doesn't draw, even at home.

    Going to be interesting...

        Natural Ice? I’d hike up a mound of Natty Ice if there was good beer at the top.

          Does Utica's fan base travel that well? I know they do VERY well at home and they had a good group in Placid a few years ago but 1800 is a pretty high amount of fans for any fan base...

            Utica's only a 3 hour drive down the thruway and you have to remember, we don't get this very often. You'd get a good number of Utica fans there on the Frozen Four Friday

              The excitement-level is high for this team. If the weather is good, maybe 1800 would buy tickets, unless that proves difficult for one reason or the other.

              Just my guess.

                If Utica gets there, they won’t be able to buy 1800 tickets for every game. The seats will be broken up based on the teams competing and every team will have an opportunity at a percentage of the seats.

                  Depending on the field, that place might be empty in any case. The organizers must be praying for a kinda-sorta local team to qualify.

                    Well they are guaranteed one of Geneseo/Hobart/Adrian....that’s a pretty good start to get one of those fan bases of the bracket falls like we think it’s going to.

                    Utica and Norwich also possibilities. You get the victor of that group and Utica/Norwich there...tickets won’t be easy to come by i don’t think. I would guesstimate Norwich could get 500ish fans to Buffalo based on previous history.

                      Norwich brought well over 500 to Utica when they hosted. If the final 4 has Utica Norwich and Geneseo all there it will be a hassle to try and get tickets. A Utica Norwich final in Albany would bring in a ton of fans

                        Fantastic weekend by both teams, super happy to see UC win the tournament again, great group of guys. Congrats to Wilkes on a great season, despite what the scoreboard said each night, they played really well. I definitely see them winning that tournament in the future. Cool to see a freshman get the MVP, Zapata definitely heating up at the right time.

                        Side note: as a Utica fan that was in attendance for both games, especially on Saturday, I'm proud of our fans for showing Wilkes support at the end of the game, big cheers shown for them. I had a Wilkes fan approach me after and said he was really pleased with how our fans showed support for them after the game. Kudos there.

                        NCAA selection show at 10:30am today, can't wait to see the field, expect to see a lot of good teams! Going to be interesting to see when a game would be if Utica gets to host a NCAA game, the soccer team has games on both Saturdays @7pm the next 2 weekends. My guess would be an afternoon game, 2pm start maybe?
