To Reiterate: Fans Good, Basketball Team ... Eh

This is nice.

NC State ranked 16th in Division I men’s basketball attendance for the 2007-08 season, the ninth straight year that the Pack has ranked in the top-20. An average of 15,043 fans came to the RBC Center for 16 home games, the highest average since the arena’s inaugural season, 1999-2000, when an average of 16,535 fans came to cheer on the Pack.

“The support of the Wolfpack fans is invaluable to our team,” said head coach Sidney Lowe. “It’s one of the things I loved most about playing for NC State, and now it’s one of the things I love most about coaching at NC State.”

Can we make ourselves a trophy for this, or would that be taking it too far?
