Does anybody know if Cameron sells out for a GIRLS game?

Depends on the game. This one? I'm sure there are plenty of good seats still available
Of course it is always cool to see a game in Cameron....

That's what I was thinking!

I imagine the students will be on Christmas break.

This one is gonna be ugly

Most of their games do not sell out. Duke is all about the men's team. Coach K signs everywhere around Cameron. The gym isn't really that big. Interesting place. Looks better on TV.

I've been to a sold out women's game there before. It is one of those places in which any fan should experience a game at some point in their lives. I feel like all the old places in North Carolina - Cameron Indoor, Carmichael, Reynolds - have the same historic feel to them. I've watched and coached in games at all of them. You can feel the history the moment you walk in the door. Very cool!

Yeah, Reynolds has been updated and looks great now and the history is still there! It's somewhat shocking to see where Michael Jordan played--so small--even the locker room is really tiny and MJ, Perkins and the rest had to duck their heads just to enter the room--the doorways are 6ft tall..I wish they would update that gym for the girls sake. The mens gym at N. Carolina is pretty new and looks like where Michael would have played in, 16,000 seat stadium. Things have really changed over the years.

Carmichael was updated just a short while ago. Nice place for the women. Remember, in WBB bigger is not better.

The Lady Flames played there in NCAA last Spring. It was nice. LU was well represented

And fast...

You never know. They played well and could have won at the end against Ohio State and Cal. That's what makes sports so great!

True. But those teams are not as good as Duke. And apparently coaches have studied video and found LU's Achilles heel

Ding ding ding

Imagine that. Through coincidence we are in Raleigh at the moment

Staying for the game or just passing through?

God's country for sure.

Final score 79-41. Anyone know if Rininger is hurt? She only played 12 minutes and was not in foul trouble.

I'm guessing ACL.

A nugget on Twitter ...

She was clutching her kneecap while she sat on the bench during the second half and didn't need crutches after the game. Seemed in rather decent spirits during the postgame interview when we asked her about the knee. She landed on only her left knee when she was getting an offensive rebound. Should be interesting to see what the tests reveal.

Yep. We had been doing PF Changs but she had that pre surgery and it didn't agree with her
