Capacity crowd. Full noise. Big statement. || Mitchell Hall holds 2,880
Let’s see what happens when La Crosse decides to show up.
Saturday, January 10
FREE EVENTS — Bubba’s Fund is proud to partner with Rising Athletes, UW-La Crosse Athletics and UW-La Crosse Women’s Basketball. Charlie’s parents — Alex Weber and UWL Women’s Basketball Coach Moran Lonning — are Eagles through and through, and some of Charlie’s sweetest days were spent right here in Mitchell Hall with the UWL WBB family. Charlie’s spirit lives on as the program’s Forever Sixth Man.
That’s why January 10, 2026 isn’t just another date — it’s a day to show up together, as one loud, loving crowd.
