According to Scarletknights.com, “With three games already sold out, tickets are moving fast. Fans are encouraged to act fast to secure tickets, with especially low availability for games against Wisconsin, Penn State and Nebraska, as well as the contest against Merrimack as RU looks to extend the sell-out streak to 11 games.”
Fans still looking for tickets are encouraged to look on the secondary market via StubHub.
The Scarlet Knights went 16-12 overall, posting a KenPom ranking of 38 and NET ranking of 40. The team spent 11 weeks nationally ranked or receiving votes in the AP Poll, peaking at No. 11 in the nation.
