Lack of students attending games

Adia Barnes says gaining student support from the @ZonaZooOfficial for #WNIT “has been difficult” despite donated free tickets. “Pizza and a free ticket, you better come out. We don’t sell alcohol, maybe that’s what’s missing. ... I don’t know what the solution to that is.” pic.twitter.com/wg9uSbpkkg
