I’ve updated an Excel spreadsheet on my OneDrive site with Avg. Home Attendance in 2015. The spreadsheet can be sorted by team, conference, AVCA ranking (1-35), AVCA votes, RPI ranking, seeding, exit round, record, etc.
Link: http://1drv.ms/21IpOR9

Regarding the Avg. Home Attendance numbers, they include the sub-regional rounds. The attendance numbers are probably reported as tickets sold, not turnstile. Some attendance breakdowns for 2015:
– Avg. Att. of the AVCA Ranked (1-35) = 2,224
– Median Att. of the AVCA Ranked (1-35) = 1,818 (the number in the middle of the set)

– Avg. Att. of the Seeded teams (1-16) = 2,751
– Median Att. of the Seeded teams (1-16) = 1,964

– Avg. Att. of all DIV I WVB teams (1-334) = 636
– Median Att. of all DIV I WVB teams (1-334) = 381

Capuano and Taylor. My personal issue is 50/50 with the comments on the two teams. Unlike the TAMU twosome when I used the mute when watching the replay.

20. I was hoping for Anne Marie Taylor or Karch, but Capuano is good and Maria Taylor isn’t bad.

#12 Glad your ohana can make it to the game. I saw the show on the Food Network where the Aloha Plate truck won season 4 of “The Great Food Truck Race”. One of the big reasons for that win was that people from the great Hawaiian diaspora (people with Hawaii ties or just Hawaiians at heart) would show up where ever the trucks stopped and supported Aloha Plate. Hopefully a similar thing will happen on Friday for the PSU match. That match will be a huge challenge and Na Wahine will need to super focused and bring their A++ game. Having UH fans in the stands might help make the difference. If you can attend and cheer on Na Wahine, please do so; you might be witnessing history.

I guess I’m a Klummer, playing pick up basketball after classes in 1960. The only two structures there in the quarry besides Klum Gym that I can recall was the ROTC and dance hall.

To answer a question on the announcers for the Regional, it’s Cara Capuano and Maria Taylor. Who’s Capuano?
