The latest local news, weather and high school sports from the Heartland

The Truman State University Department of Athletics has announced its ticket options for the 2012-13 season, headlined this year by the new TruPass – an all-sports cost-saving option for Bulldog fans.
 
The TruPass will sell for $100 and will provide a general admission seat for each of the six home football games, 26 total men’s and women’s basketball games and 14 volleyball matches.

A discounted rate of $60 for a transferable TruPass is available to Truman faculty and staff; however, faculty and staff will continue to have the option of picking up two free general admission tickets at the gate (with proper University ID).
 
Once again, Truman students will be admitted into all home events for free (with proper University ID).
 
In addition to the TruPass, football-only and basketball-only passes will be available.

Stokes Stadium will be general admission for all seats in 2012, with single-game tickets selling for $8.00 for adults and $5.00 for students in grades K-12 and seniors over 60.

The football-only season pass will sell for $40.00. Pass-lot parking in the Stokes Stadium lot will once again be available for a $20.00 stand-alone rate or for a discounted $10.00 rate if purchased at the same time as a TruPass or football-only pass.

Free parking lots will once again be available on game days both south and west of the stadium.
 
Pershing Arena will also be fully general admission seating for the 2012-13 school year following the installation of new bleachers – including nearly 400 chair-back seats – this summer.

Single-game (or both games of a scheduled doubleheader) tickets for basketball will sell for $6.00 for adults and $3.00 for students in grades K-12 and seniors over 60. The basketball-only season pass will sell for $60.00.
 
Volleyball will also be charging admission for the first time in 2012 to align the program with schools in both the MIAA and GLVC.

Single-match volleyball tickets will sell for $3.00 for adults and $2.00 for students in grades K-12 and seniors over 60. There will be no volleyball-only pass, with only the TruPass allowing pass admittance.
 
Tickets are now available by calling 660.785.4236 or by visiting http://gobulldogs.truman.edu/store.
