UNC Women's Basketball Season Tip-Off Delayed by a Day!
The highly anticipated start of the University of Northern Colorado women's basketball journey has been pushed back, creating a buzz among fans. The season opener, originally set for Monday, November 3rd, will now tip off on Tuesday, November 4th at 6 p.m. at the Bank of Colorado Arena.
This adjustment affects more than just the calendar. The game was initially part of a doubleheader with the UNC men's team, who will still play on the 3rd. But here's the twist: fans with tickets for the women's game on the 3rd can still attend the rescheduled game on the 4th, ensuring no one misses out on the action.
The Bears are set to face Northern New Mexico, an NAIA school from Espanola, New Mexico. This marks the beginning of a four-game home stand for the UNC women's team, who will then take on Lamar, Bethany College, and the University of Denver in the following week.
But the excitement doesn't stop there! UNC Athletics has been making waves with its recent fundraising success, raising over $350,000 in their annual Building Champions campaign. And that's not all—the CSU Rams are witnessing the rise of a new leader in quarterback Jackson Brousseau, while UNC football gears up for a significant matchup against Sacramento State.
And this is where local talent shines! Eaton's Emma Anderson has committed to play softball for the University of Arizona, showcasing the incredible athletic prowess of the region.
With so much happening, the UNC sports scene is buzzing with energy. The women's basketball team's delayed start only adds to the anticipation. Will this extra day of preparation give them an edge? Only time will tell. But one thing's for sure: the UNC Bears are ready to roar!
