RE: Saint Joseph's

If this is the case, how will St Joe's hold up against huge crowds.  I 
think I would definitely like to have St. Joe's in our bracket.  For the 
most part the crowds like to cheer on the underdog.  Not sure if that will 
work for the 4th hated team in America but I am willing to give it a try.

That is correct, St Joe's gym holds 3,200.  If I remember right, the 
seating
capacity was actually increased to 3,200 in the early 90's.  But in 
response
to the other part of your post, Indiana high school gymnasiums hold as 
many
as 10,000.

I have relatives in New Castle, Ind., where the likes of Kent Benson and
Steve Alford have played in front of more than 10,000 in "The Fieldhouse".

In this book Ive got it says Saint Joseph's gym holds 3,200. Is that 
right?
I
havent had a chance to look but they dont play their home games there do
they? High school gyms in Indiana hold as many as 5,000. If thats true I 
bet
they
wish they had a bigger gym this year. Don
