GREELEY — Opportunities to sing the fight song after a win were few and far between for the Colorado women's basketball team last season.
To hear the song after her debut on Friday night put a smile on the face of first-year Buffaloes head coach JR Payne.
The Payne era got off to a successful start with an 83-62 win against Northern Colorado at Bank of Colorado Arena.
"For a group like this, just to feel that and go on the road, get a win and in the locker room everybody is cheering and singing the fight song, all of that feels great and is an important first step for us moving forward," Payne said.
