About
Michigan Wolverines, ☎ +1 734 764-0247, [63]. Ann Arbor is a college town, and this fact is perhaps no more prevalent than on game day (particularly football where the stadium fills to the largest capacity in the entire nation). UM has one of the most accomplished and competitive athletic programs in the nation. No visit is complete without taking in at least one Michigan sporting event. The football program has won more games in its history than any other Division I FBS program, and sells out every game at "The Big House", capacity 109,901. The men's ice hockey program is a national powerhouse, winning an NCAA record 9 national championships, and packing a boisterous 6,377 sellout crowd into historic Yost Ice Arena. In 2010, the hockey team took its home leg of its annual rivalry with Michigan State (located in East Lansing) to Michigan Stadium, setting up a rink in the middle of the football field. The game drew a crowd of nearly 105,000 (turnstile count), setting an all-time record for the sport. Michigan also has a strong tradition in men's basketball, swimming, baseball, softball, field hockey, gymnastics, cross country and track. Other teams include women's basketball, golf, men's lacrosse, rowing, soccer, diving, tennis, volleyball, water polo, and wrestling. Women's lacrosse will be added in the 2013–14 school year.
