Support for Coastal sports a real letdown
As a supporter of all Coastal Carolina University sports for over 30 years, it is surprising and disappointing to see the poor student attendance at the CollegeInsider.com basketball games. There have been less than 100 students at the games, including the 30 of the dance team, band, and cheerleaders.
For a school with enrollment of 10,000 and which offered free tickets, I find it curious why the students do not attend to watch an exciting winning team. Despite this lack of student support, the community has supported the team and cheered them to two victories. Hopefully someone from the student body will get the word out and we fill HTC Center next time. Go Chants!
