Air Force coach frustrated with crowd sizes

Air Force improved to 5-0 at home with a win over Citadel on Wednesday and only those in an announced crowd of 806 were there to see it. On Saturday, a Falcons’ victory over perennial NCAA Tournament participant New Mexico State drew just 1,034.

Coach Dave Pilipovich is frustrated by the empty seats at Clune Arena.

“Can I plead with our community to come out and support this team?” Pilipovich said on Wednesday. “There’s a great group of guys. We’re 5-0 at home. They’re a great group of young men who are going to serve our country, can we get some people to come out and cheer these guys on. We’ve got to fill some seats.”
