GREELEY, Colo. - Northern Colorado women's basketball returns to Bank of Colorado Arena on Monday, Nov. 9, welcoming Northern New Mexico for a 6 p.m. match up. The Bears will look to continue building momentum early in the 2026-27 season as they prepare for another opportunity in front of the home crowd.
LAST TIME OUT: Northern Colorado most recently traveled to Austin, Texas, to face the nationally recognized Longhorns on Saturday, Nov. 7. The match up provided the Bears with an early-season test against one of the nation's top programs as UNC continued its non-conference schedule.
The Bears opened the season with an impressive 102-76 victory over Hastings College at home. Heather Baymon led the offensive effort with a career-high 30 points, while Tatum West recorded a double-double with 23 points and 17 rebounds. Northern Colorado reached the 100-point mark for the 21st time in program history to begin the season 1-0.
The Bears will look to respond with a strong performance at home as they continue to develop and prepare for the remainder of the non-conference schedule.
THE OPPONENT: Northern New Mexico makes the trip to Greeley for its match up with the Bears. The Eagles compete in the NAIA and currently hold a 0-2 overall record.
SEASON OUTLOOK: Northern Colorado was selected third in both the Big Sky Conference coaches' and media preseason polls following last season's success. With returning experience and welcoming talented newcomers, the Bears will look to remain among the conference's top contenders while building toward another postseason run.
ON DECK: Northern Colorado continues its three-game home stand on Saturday, Nov. 14, welcoming Sam Houston to Bank of Colorado Arena for a 6 p.m. tip-off. The Bears will then host UC Davis on Monday, Nov. 16, at 6 p.m. for Faculty and Staff Day.
