Colorado women’s basketball sets attendance record in loss to UCLA
An all-time program record 11,338 fans packed the CU Events Center on Friday evening to witness the No. 3 Colorado women’s basketball team battle No. 5 UCLA.
While the 76-68 final score went in favor of UCLA, the sellout crowd was another sign of the buzz surrounding this talented Buffaloes team. The 11,338 fans in attendance marked the fifth sellout in program history and the third-largest crowd ever for a Colorado basketball home game — men’s or women’s.
Up next, Colorado hosts No. 6 USC on Sunday, a matchup that should draw another large audience.
Check out some of the best pictures and videos from Friday evening’s record crowd at the CU Events Center:

You are looking at the largest crowd EVER for a #CUBuffs women’s basketball home game. It’s a sellout announced at 11,338. Fifth sellout all-time for the program, but previous 4 were all NCAA Tournament games. Most recent was in 1995. pic.twitter.com/N0yWmd2MkQ
