NIAGARA UNIV., N.Y. – Niagara University Athletics is extending the offer to purchase season tickets for the 2020-21 season with no price increase from 2019-20 season. The revised deadline to renew or purchase season tickets will be May 31, 2020. For a full listing of seat location and corresponding prices see the chart listed below.
The slight increase in price for 2020-21 season is due to hosting more home games inside the Gallagher Center. The Purple Eagles went 9-3 at home during the 2019-20 campaign, including going 8-2 in MAAC games. Niagara's 8-2 home record in league games is the best since the 2008-09 season. Niagara closed out the 2019-20 season with a win over Marist in the 2020 Hercules Tires Men's Basketball MAAC Championship First Round. James Towns was selected for the 2020 Hercules Tires Men’s Basketball MAAC Championship team.
Greg Paulus was named the recipient of the 2019-20 Joe B. Hall Award which is presented annually to the top first-year coach in NCAA Division I college basketball. Paulus made the 2019-20 Purple Eagles one of the most competitive teams in the MAAC. The Purple Eagles surpassed preseason predictions with Paulus having the Purple Eagles contending near the top of the conference all season and winning ten games against conference opponents. The Purple Eagles ranked statistically in the top-25 in the nation in fewest turnovers per game (10.6), in fewest total turnovers (338), in turnover margin (3.3) and in 3-point field goal percentage (.372), while leading the MAAC in all four categories.
To secure the current pricing for next year's season tickets, a non-refundable deposit of $50 is due by May 31, 2020. Niagara hockey and women's basketball season tickets are also available at the 2019-20 prices.
