Tennis Buffs Gear Up to face RedHawks, Pioneers

January 28, 2026 | Tennis

Colorado ready to face Miami (Ohio) and Denver in another weekend of competition.

BOULDER – The Colorado Buffaloes tennis team are gearing up to find success in another weekend of competition, following the 2-0 start at home this past Friday and Sunday.
 
Colorado opened home and spring competition on Jan. 23, sweeping Montana State, 7-0, with a full lineup of success from both singles and doubles. The Buffs kept the energy going on Jan. 25, capping the weekend off with another clean sweep, 4-0, against the Air Force Academy.
 
"It's always nice to play at home," head coach Anthony Pham said. "I think we've had a good month so far with practice, training, and getting the two matches in last week. We always have good crowds at home so it's nice to play here, but whether it's home or on the road, the focus for us is to keep getting better. We know the month of February is going to be a challenging one, from a travel standpoint. But I think our team is ready."
 
The Buffs will match up against Miami (Ohio) at home on Friday to conclude home competition until early March. The team will make a short trip on Sunday to their first away match, facing close rivals, the Denver Pioneers.  
 
Colorado has yet to face the RedHawks, who start their season 0-4 heading into Fridays match.  On the contrary, the Pioneers are just 1-0 to begin their spring season, defeating Seattle 6-1 last Friday.
 
The Buffs currently reign a 32-13 record over Denver, and at one point holding a 15-match win streak from 1985 to 2003. Since then, it has been a back-and-forth battle between the Colorado competitors, yet CU has posted victories in the last two match ups since 2022.
 
"DU is always a very good program," Pham said. "It's always a close match. It'll be a good test for us, but we must clean up to start on Friday against Miami, and then we can head into Sunday. For both, it's just good opportunities for us to keep getting better."
 
The Pioneers have finished at the top of the Summit League conference for 11-straight years, since joining the league in 2013. They have represented in the last 11 NCAA Championship tournaments as well, advancing twice to the second round.
 
Competition will begin at 6 p.m. (MT) on Friday at the Meadows Club, and 4 p.m. on Sunday at the Denver Tennis Park. Live updates and information will be available to follow on Instagram and X at @cubuffstennis.
