INDIANAPOLIS - North Dakota State ranks among the nation's Division I women's volleyball average attendance leaders in a report released by the NCAA this week.
North Dakota State drew 12,826 spectators to 13 home dates last season for an average of 987 that ranked 43rd among all Division I schools. It was NDSU's fourth straight year in the top 50.
Three crowds over a thousand filled the Bentson Bunker Fieldhouse during the year, including a season-high 1,638 for the three-set win over North Dakota on Sept. 16. It was the fourth-largest home crowd in school history.
North Dakota State was 20-11 overall and won its third straight Summit League regular-season title with a 14-4 record. NDSU was 11-2 at home with its only losses coming to a Tulsa team that went 31-3 and advanced to the second round of the NCAA tournament, and Summit League regular season co-champion IPFW.
Hawaii, with an average of 6,169 fans for 20 matches, led the nation for the 14th straight season since the NCAA began tracking attendance records. Forty-one teams averaged at least 1,000 fans. NDSU was the only Summit League team in the top 50.
