UNC-Charlotte Basketball Tickets
Everyone knows that the state of North Carolina is an epicenter for college basketball. Unfortunately, one of the teams that can get lost in the shuffle is the UNC-Charlotte 49ers. Among mid-major programs, the 49ers have long been one of the best in the country, making cheap UNC-Charlotte basketball tickets challenging to find at times. Even if the 49ers don’t have the same tradition as Duke or North Carolina, there is a proud history and a loyal fanbase. The 49ers have bounced around from one conference to another but have always found success on the court, which is why there is always a demand for last-minute UNC-Charlotte basketball tickets.
Smelling Roses
A little over a decade after the program was born, Lee Rose took over as the head coach of the 49ers. In his first season, he took UNC-Charlotte to the finals of the NIT, a new watermark for the program. However, he did even better in his second season at the helm. During the 1976-77 season, the 49ers captured the Sun Belt Conference title in their first season in the league. Then, UNC-Charlotte reached the Final Four for the first and only time in program history. While Rose only coached the 49ers for three seasons, he led the 49ers to a 72-18 record and laid a foundation for future success.
Still Mining
The success that UNC-Charlotte experienced in the late 70s has continued for decades. Between 1992 and 2005, the 49ers made eight appearances in the NCAA Tournament, becoming one of the pre-eminent teams in Conference USA. That stretch also included four wins in the first round of the NCAA Tournament in a five-year span, putting the 49ers on equal ground with many power-conference teams. After leaving Conference USA for a few years, the 49ers returned to the league that they co-founded during the 2013-14 season and have started to rebuild with hopes of returning to the glory days of the program when UNC-Charlotte was a top-flight mid-major college basketball team.
