There is one constant in photos of the San Diego State women’s basketball team playing at Viejas Arena in recent years: the red sea.
Not the body of water, but the sea of empty red seats in the background of photos.
The Aztecs went 12-19 overall last season and averaged around 604 people at each home game. The men’s basketball team, by contrast, went 27-9 last season and has averaged a sellout attendance of 12,414 people since 2012.
The raucous student section known as The Show at SDSU has largely been a no-show at women’s basketball games.
