Press release
While the Big 12 should be commended for the great numbers, attendance numbers for women's college basketball still have room for improvement. For example, the University of Kansas ranked 10th among the Big 12 schools with a total attendance of 42,508 and an average of 2,657 fans. That total attendance number ranked 43rd nationally.
Forty-third! In my opinion, not very impressive in the grand scheme of things; but, even that number dwarfs the total attendace figures for many, many other teams in the country.
