UK Hoops Wins SEC 'Pack the House' Challenge
The University of Kentucky women's basketball program was one of 33 winners in the NCAA Division I "Pack the House" Challenge. "Pack the House" is national effort in which conferences and institutions compete to build attendance. NCAA Division I women's basketball marketing staffs selected a home game and designated that date as a "Pack the House" game with the goal of setting an attendance record. One winner from each of the 32 conferences and one from a group of independent institutions were named. Selections were based on marketing plan creativity and attendance criteria. The NCAA will award prizes and donate $500 to the nonprofit organization of each winning institution's choice.[IMAGE1]
