COOKEVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee Tech basketball fans hoping to sit with their fellow fans in purple & gold at the 2016 Ohio Valley Conference Basketball Tournament this week need to purchase their tickets from the TTU Ticket Office in order to secure seats in the Golden Eagle cheering section in Municipal Auditorium.

Individual game tickets are $30 each, and if purchased through the Tech Ticket Office, will be in whichever is Tech's designated seating area for each Golden Eagle game. Tickets purchased at the arena are also $30, but will not be in the Tech section and will be in the upstairs locations further from the action.

"We're strongly encouraging our fans to purchase their tickets from Tennessee Tech, and put themselves right in the middle of the action as far as our fans are concerned," said Mark Wilson, TTU Director of Athletics.

Tech student tickets, with a valid ID, are $5 apiece.

All session tickets are also available through Tech for $80.

To order tickets, or for additional information about the Golden Eagles in the OVC Tournament and seating information, please call (931) 372-3940 or visit the Athletic Ticket Office in Eblen Center.
