CU volleyball strong in season opener victory over Oregon State

The Colorado Buffaloes volleyball team trampled over the Oregon State Beavers in a 3-0 sweep in their season opener Friday at the CU Events Center. In their first match in over a year, the Buffs looked strong throughout the night, hoisting them to an early 1-0 record on the season.

In CU’s first match during the pandemic, players’ calls for the ball echoed throughout the empty stadium. Both teams had to wear masks and the ball was meticulously sterilized after each play. Although there were no fans at the CU Events Center, the Buffaloes bench had electrifying energy throughout the game, yelling their own cheers to their teammates and dancing to the music.
