The matchup promises to be an exciting contest as the teams compete for an essential early season victory.

Following their game against Eastern Washington, Colorado will continue to develop under Coach Boyle, who expressed optimism about his freshman class, stating, ‘This is going to be a fun team to watch grow and develop.’
