Preseason Volleyball Camp Off To Great Start
August 10, 2016 | Volleyball
BOULDER — The 2016 Colorado volleyball team completed its first day of fall camp on Tuesday and if the first day says anything about the season ahead, it's going to be a great one.
"It was a really good day," Colorado head coach Jesse Mahoney said. "There was a lot of excitement. We came in really focused."
Tuesday was the first chance for Mahoney and his staff, assistant coaches Lee Maes and Evan Sanders, to work with the team this fall. The Buffs return 10 letterwinners from the 2015 team that went 19-13 overall and finished fifth in the Pac-12 with an 11-9 mark. In the offseason, CU added eight newcomers, including four transfers.
"The chemistry has been good," Mahoney said. "There are a lot of players to get through drills, but that is alright."
Colorado will practice twice on most days leading up to the start of the school year on August 22. CU opens the season on August 26 at the Portland State Tournament after hosting the Black & Gold Intrasquad scrimmage on August 20 at 3 p.m. at the Coors Events Center.
Single match tickets for most contests start at just $5 for general admission and $8 for reserved seating. Tickets for the Pac-12/Big Ten Challenge (Sept. 3-4), as well as the second day of the Omni Invitational (Sept. 17), will start at $8 for general admission and $12 for reserved seats. Kids 12 and under are still free.
Season tickets are also available and start at just $25 for general admission, while reserved seats are $40. Fans can purchase single match and season tickets online at CUBuffs.com or by calling 303-49-BUFFS.
And don't forget about the Women's Sports Pass. For just $125, the Women's sports pass gives you general admission seating for all volleyball, soccer and women's basketball home games.
