Arizona’s baseball team drew 1,249 fans for Friday night’s intrasquad game at Hi Corbett Field. That suggests that Jay Johnson’s 2017 Wildcats could strongly pursue the school’s career attendance record. Andy Lopez’s 2012 College World Series championship team drew a record 105,131 at Hi Corbett, and 103,877 a year later. Those are the only teams in school history to top 100,000. Arizona has 33 home games this season; if it matches last year’s average attendance of 3,043 per game it would exceed 100,000. If it is able to play host to an NCAA regional or super regional, it would likely break all attendance records.
Arizona's baseball program could smash attendance record this spring
