Kobe Webster led the Western scoring with 27 points. Dalan Ancrum had 19. Jalen Morgan had 13. Delo Bruster had 10.

Attendance at Western Hall = 589.

The crowds have been very small so far this season. We need more people showing up.

Crowds have been: 694, 645, 503, and 589. You would have to describe those as very disappointing numbers.
Time to start posting on social media...let everyone know. Tell everyone to get to Western Hall because this could be an exciting season for both the men and women.

They have got to do something to get more students there. No student support. Have the players, professors, cheerleader, whoever bring the game up in class. Have promotions for the students. I would bet that no one even knew there was a game last night. Have got to get students more involved. I guarantee they were in high school, why Cant it carry over to college?

We keep hounding the students for not showing up at the ball games. At the same time, we need to be seeing who is showing up at the art exhibits, piano recitals, and other events on campus. Is there a student wearing a letter jacket in the audience?
Embrace the pace of the race.

Athletics is the most visible, since it's often the "face" of a university and it's shown on TV/Online. Something tells me that you don't often see a ton of students at any events on campus though...whether it's athletics, the arts, or whatever.

JUST LIKE HOME: Indy natives Webster and Morgan lead WIU past IUPUI.

Be interesting to see what kind of crowd they have Saturday. Finally playing a decent team on a Saturday, there other Saturday games have been against non D1 teams, and when they have played good competition it has been during the week.
