Gameday links:
I wish ESPN3 or ESPN+ would pick this up, but there isn't any kind of pre-arranged agreement there yet with this tournament. I don't remember if ESPN ever televises the NIT or WNIT. If they do, it could happen for the NIVC in the future.
*edit: the men's NIT (different company) has multiple games televised by ESPN. The WNIT championship games only, both for the preseason and postseason games, were televised by CBS Sports.

Sorry... I'm a bit slow. What am I missing with the attendance #s you are throwing out there? 4,102 was the attendance at the Big Blue Empty for the SDSU - UNI football playoff game the first weekend of December. Awesome! I missed it. Happy I know now. Good one!

Tuesday afternoon amateur count: 1579.... we have now eclipsed the NIVC Championship record, set last year at Iowa State... I'm now wondering if we might see a final number closer to 3K?

I want to preface this by saying that I am crazy excited for tonight and will be in at the game cheering my lungs out, but is anyone else uncomfortable calling this a national championship? Did we do so for the WNIT win?

Did we do so for the WNIT win? Yeah, I'd probably always make sure to include "NIVC" as a qualifier. Technically speaking it IS a championship match of A national tournament, .... but, yeah. I'd specify which tournament.

Did we do so for the WNIT win? I know I saw the term "national championship" a time or two with the WNIT title. I can't remember where, but obviously the school isn't claiming a national championship.

WNIT championship game is always on CBS Sports Network. Disappointed that MidcoSN didn’t broadcast any NIVC games.

Crap. So close in the first two sets, but in the end it was a sweep.
No idea how either team got shut out of the dance. Both are legit.

These players certainly have brought nothing but positives this season. They have set a very high standard for future Coyote teams and will leave a lasting legacy as the team that raised the profile of USD volleyball to front page news. Congratulations on an absolutely tremendous year and thank you for a memorable season.
