Where good news shines

Beware the Roadrunners.

MSU Denver’s volleyball team earned a No. 1 seed in the South Central Region when the NCAA Division II women’s bracket was released Monday. That means the Roadrunners will host the regional at Auraria Event Center on Dec. 4-6. 

MSU Denver (26-3) drew Colorado Mesa (17-10) in the first round. It’s the 25th straight NCAA Tournament berth for the Roadrunners, who enter the bracket with a 17-match win streak and coming off an RMAC tournament title.

MSU Denver shared the RMAC regular-season title with UCCS.

It’s the third time MSU Denver will host the South Central Regional after doing so in 2021 and 2022.
