The contest between Southern Miss and Rice set attendance records for the Conference USA tournament championship this Memorial Day weekend: 5,216 people crowded into MGM Park in Biloxi to witness the final game.
Despite dropping the championship, USM was still picked to host a NCAA regional tournament, and it didn’t take long for the tournament to completely sell out.
In fact, it only took half a day.
Officials at Southern Miss say they may release single-session tickets to the general public two hours prior to each game’s starting time. You’re encouraged to check the Pete Taylor Park Box Office for availability.
