Students, faculty, staff, and all Hawks fans are encouraged to come to the Sports Center on Friday morning to give members of the women’s basketball team a spirited send-off as they leave for the NCAA tournament.

A send-off celebration will take place at 9:30 a.m. Friday in front of the Sports Center. Come dressed in red and white, and bring your friends and colleagues to give the team a final show of fan support before the tournament!

The Hartford women, who earned a No. 11 seed in the tournament, will take on No. 6 Temple at noon Sunday at the Sovereign Bank Arena in Trenton, N.J. To purchase tickets, go to www.sovereignbankarena.com or call 888-SBA-TIXX. Single session tickets are $30.


Free and Discounted Tickets Available for Students, Faculty, Staff, and Alumni

The Kampus Activities Team and Student Government Association have organized a student bus to Trenton and purchased tickets for Sunday’s game, so that students can travel to the game and attend for free.

Today (Thursday) after 3 p.m., any game tickets and bus seats that have not been reserved by students will be made available at the Campus Concierge in GSU, on a first-come, first-served basis, as follows:
  • Tickets that are left over will be available, free of charge, to students who want to drive to Trenton on their own (instead of taking the bus from campus). There will be a limit of one ticket per student. When you come to the Campus Concierge to pick up a ticket, you must bring your University of Hartford student ID.


  • Leftover tickets will also be made available to faculty, staff, and alumni at a discounted price of $25 (cash only, exact change required), with a limit of four tickets per person. Free bus space will be available for those who register with the Campus Concierge (but it’s not required for the ticket purchase).
The student motor coach bus will leave the Sports Center promptly at 6:30 a.m. on Sunday and will head back to campus immediately after the Hartford vs. Temple game.

If you would like to claim any of the leftover tickets, go to the Campus Concierge in Gengras Student Union between 3 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. today (Thursday), or between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. on Friday. Tickets cannot be held, and there are no refunds.
