Tickets for the 2009 USCAA National Basketball Championships at Penn State Fayette, The Eberly Campus are on sale now. Action in the championships begins with a full slate on Wednesday, March 4, and continues daily through Saturday, March 7.
“We really think the ticket prices are a great value,” explains Vince Capozzi, athletic director, who reports single-day tickets cost $7. “If a person comes and stays all day, that amounts to a little more than a dollar per game.”
Capozzi also notes that, in addition to single-day tickets, sports fans have the opportunity to purchase a pass good for all four days at a price of $20. “You save a dollar, plus you don’t have to worry about standing in ticket lines,” Capozzi points out.
Advance tickets are available Monday-Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. by calling Penn State Fayette at (724) 430-4100, ext. 4514, or visiting the Athletics Office in Penn State Fayette’s Community Center.
A total of 29 of the tournament’s 49 games will be played on the Fayette campus, with Penn State Greater Allegheny in McKeesport hosting the remaining 20. A total of 30 teams — including both the Fayette men’s and women’s teams — will be in town to vie for championships in Men’s Division I, Men’s Division II and the Women’s Division.
