If you are a student at the University of Nebraska and were planning to wait a while before you signed up for basketball season tickets, you missed your window.
The Huskers announced Friday that student tickets were sold out for the 2019-20 season. Nearly 1,600 student tickets were purchased since going on sale after the hiring of Fred Hoiberg in early April.
Friday marked the earliest date student tickets have sold out since the 2015-16 season.
"Having a strong student section is important in building a home-court advantage, and today’s announcement shows how excited Husker students are for the upcoming season." Hoiberg said in a news release. "Our team’s goal is to work hard and give our students and fans a product they can be proud of."
The season-ticket renewal process is currently underway for the 2019-20 season. Fans can purchase tickets to all 17 games at Pinnacle Bank Arena this season, including 10 Big Ten Conference matchups, for as low as $136.
