Men's basketball season tickets for the Cincinnati Bearcats' upcoming 2018-19 schedule are sold out following record sales, according to an announcement Tuesday from the university's athletic department.
Nearly 9,000 season tickets were sold, the announcement added, breaking the single-season record for 29-year-old Fifth Third Arena, which recently underwent a 20-month, privately funded $87-million renovation.
