NCAA Trenton Regional Named Saturday/Monday Site
MAAC Sports
Edison, NJ - The 2013 NCAA
Division I Women's Basketball Trenton Regional, hosted by the Metro Atlantic
Athletic Conference (MAAC) and Rider University, will be played on Saturday,
March 30 and Monday, April 1 at the Sun National Bank Center in Trenton, N.J.
The
MAAC and Rider co-hosted the same event in 2009 with the Sunday/Tuesday format.
"The
opportunity to host the regional doubleheader on a Saturday is a big advantage
for Trenton as it seeks to increase attendance and attract more fans to the
site," said MAAC Commissioner Richard J. Ensor. "It will be an exciting day of
college hoops, and the arena staff and the Local Organizing Committee will
provide many family friendly pricing options and various group sales options."
"Rider is excited to once again partner with the MAAC, the
Sun National Bank Arena, Mercer County, and the Mercer County Sports and
Entertainment commission to bring a quality NCAA Women's Basketball
Championship event to the area," said Rider Director of Athletics Don Harnum.
"Getting the Saturday date for the doubleheader will certainly make this a high
demand ticket."
