The Buffs will scrimmage five opponents in March and April
BOULDER – The Colorado volleyball team revealed its 2026 spring volleyball schedule, head coach Jesse Mahoney announced on Wednesday, Feb. 18.
The Buffs have five scrimmages spread across three dates in March and April. All four of the five matches will be against schools in the state of Colorado, making for convenient but tough off-season competition.
"Spring is such an important time for our program," Coach Mahoney said. "It's when we get to slow things down, focus on development, and really invest in our culture. This spring schedule gives our team the opportunity to compete, grow and continue building toward the standard we expect at Colorado. We're excited to get back in the gym and can't wait to have Buff fans back with us this spring."
CU's first spring ball match will be at Northern Colorado in Greeley, Colo., on Mar. 28 at 11 a.m. MT, followed by a scrimmage with Wyoming at 12:30 p.m. MT. The Buffs will also host a match against Colorado State at CU Events Center on April 4 at 11 a.m. MT. The Black and Gold will meet the Rams again in Fort Collins two weekends later on April 18 at 11 a.m. MT, where they will also scrimmage Denver following that match. Time for the Denver match will be announced at a later date.
Fans will be able to attend the scrimmage against Colorado State at CUEC on April 4 at 11 a.m. MT and can view the full spring schedule here.
Under 10th-year head coach Jesse Mahoney, Colorado finished the 2025 season 23-9 and went 12-6 against Big 12 opponents. Coach Mahoney has led the Buffs to a 164-135 record in his 10 seasons at the helm. The Buffs made their 22nd appearance in the NCAA tournament after the conclusion of the regular season, sweeping American in the first round before falling to four-seed Indiana in the second round. The Buffs' last match against the Hoosiers marked the 12th second-round appearance in program history. Colorado had 20 wins this season, marking the program's 13th 20-win season and its first since 2022. With 23 wins this past season, this is the most in a season since 2017 and ties for the third-most wins in a season in program history.
