Fans have a chance to win a 2012 Buick Verano and $10,000, among other prizes, when the UCF women's basketball team (10-12, 5-5 C-USA) hosts UAB (17-5, 8-2 C-USA) on Sunday at 2 p.m. in its Pack The House game.
The Knights hope to break the attendance record for the second time this season while giving away some incredible incentives for fans. Two fans will have a chance to win a 2012 Buick Verano courtesy of Carl Black, and one student will have a chance to win a $10,000 prize.
Other in-game prizes include EA Sports prize packs, an iPod Touch, free Buffalo Wild Wings for a year and B2 Café prizes. All items will be given away through on-court contests and trivia.
The car will be on display prior to the game in front of UCF Arena where at noon, EA Sports will host a gaming station along with prize giveaways to the beats of a live DJ. Admission is free to the game, and seating is on a first-come, first-serve basis.
For the first time this season, UCF will get a second look at an opponent as UAB escaped with a 61-54 win in Birmingham on Jan. 12 for its first win in the series since 2010. UAB has won four-straight games and holds a 4-1 record on the road during conference play this season.

SENIORS PLEASED WITH EXCITMENT FROM RECORD CROWD
KAYLI KEOUGH: Our game on Sunday vs Southern Miss was what I would call a FUN game. Not only because UCF won or because our team had a lot of energy, but also because of the record-setting crowd in attendance! Coach Starkey as well as Khalilah Mitchell and our Marketing Department worked hard to allow many young elementary school students to come to the game for free. In an effort to promote reading, the students were given a bookmark and that would allow them to attend free of chart. Those students must've enjoyed thos bookmarks because over 2,500 fans were in attendance and everyone in the Arena could feel the energy and enthusiasm they brought. As players, we were all excited before the game began just because we were about to play another conference game. We could feel added intensity upon the start of the game, however, because of all the cheers coming from the crowd. It's so much more fun for us as players to hear the crowd get excited when something good happens on the court or cheering us on defensively; it makes a HUGE difference. So we want to say a big THANK YOU! to all of the fans who came out to support and we hope you come to many more!
ASHIA KELLY: Wow!! Sunday's game against Southern Miss was an awesome experience. The game was incredible to play because of the great support that we had. We were able to use the crowd's energy to help us get through our breakdowns and make the next best play. This was a one in a lifetime experience for me an I hope that we will continue to have these types of crowds throughout our season.
