The University of Georgia women’s soccer team set a new NCAA attendance record on Thursday night, drawing 25,433 fans to Sanford Stadium for a 6-0 win over James Madison. The record breaks the previous women’s mark of 14,410 from the 1999 NCAA championship in San Jose, California. Georgia’s match, called “Soccer in Sanford,” also marked the 30th anniversary of the United States women’s gold-medal run over China at the 1996 Olympics. The stadium holds 93,033 seats. Honoka Hamano scored twice for Georgia in the marquee game, surpassing the overall NCAA best of 22,512 set in 1980.
