Based on Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer's recommendation to limit large group gatherings, Hope College will utilize a restricted attendance policy for this weekend's NCAA Division III women's basketball sectional at DeVos Fieldhouse.
Only the following attendees will be allowed access to the games: credentialed team members, and essential personnel. A limited number of tickets will be made available for student-athlete family members.
Friday's games will be held in a split session. Spectators will be required to clear the fieldhouse between games. At 4:30 p.m., Loras College (Iowa) will play the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh. At 7:30 p.m., Hope College will play Baldwin Wallace University (Ohio).
Saturday's sectional final will be held at 7 p.m. between the winners of the two Friday games.
Hope College will broadcast all three sectional games on YouTube at youtube.com/hopeathletics. Live stats will be available on the Hope Athletics website.
All previously purchased tickets for this weekend will not be honored. There are no public ticket sales for the NCAA Sectional Games. Refunds for tickets purchased prior to this announcement will be processed within 7-10 business days. To request a refund, contact the Hope College ticket office at (616) 395-7890, or stop by at 100 East 8th Street. The ticket office is open weekdays between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.
