We Need Your Help!!

The support at Anderson Arena is second to none! We need YOUR help to bring this same atmosphere on the road to Ypsilanti this Saturday!



This coming Saturday (2/12/11), BGSU Women’s Basketball will be heading less than an hour north to Ypsilanti, MI, for a HUGE battle at Eastern Michigan - and we are asking for the Falcon Faithful to make the short trip and help us earn a big road win. There are many, many reasons to make the trip - here are just a few:

- It’s the shortest road trip of the season. (68 miles!)
- The BGSU Ticket Office has purchased tickets at a reduced group rate price, so tickets through our ticket office will cost just $3.
- Both BG and EMU are 7-3 in MAC play – so this game has tremendous implications for seeding for the MAC Tournament.
- We are currently tied with Kent State for the East Division title, making every game vital to our chance at winning an unprecedented 7th straight divisional title!
- Our men are playing at Central Michigan, so we’re the closest basketball game BG will have this Saturday.
- The six seniors, including Lauren Prochaska, who in the last game became the all-time leading scorer in BGSU History, have just 6 regular season games left – it’s another chance to see one of the best classes in BG History! (Just became the 6th class in history to win 100 games!)

But the most important reason to take this short trip to EMU and support the Falcons? NOTHING motivates this team more than our fans! Simply put, we have the BEST women’s basketball fans in the MAC – as good as any in the country! It’s what makes it so difficult for opponents to play at Anderson Arena, and why we have one of the best home records in the country over the last few years! With such an important road game being so close to BG, help bring that home atmosphere up to Ypsilanti! There is no doubt our players thrive playing for our fans, and so the more we can have in Ypsilanti to support us, the better our chances! And early weather reports say it's going to be a great day! (Unless you're an EMU fan!)



To summarize:
Who: BGSU at Eastern Michigan
Where: Ypsilanti, MI (68 miles north of BG)
When: 2pm this Saturday, February 12th
Cost: Tickets can be purchased through the BGSU Ticket Office for $3 (877-BGSU Ticket)

Please come out and help us beat the Eagles in this HUGE road game!
