It’s Friday. Thank goodness. Get me out of here before it snows so I can finally see Watchmen. But not without dropping some knowledge first…

First, Irish over at The Ralphie Report muses on the Buffs’ offense going into spring practice. My thought? Echoes theirs: Craft an offensive scheme, get the talent for it, and execute. Simple as that.

The CU women’s basketball team hosts #21 Kansas State tomorrow at Coors for the last game of the regular season, and will honor the team’s three seniors: Kara Richards, Hannah Skildum, and Dina Piternice.

The men take to the court in the flip of this match, taking on the Wildcats at their home gym tomorrow morning.

In other CU news, head soccer coach Bill Hempen will be traveling as an assistant for the United States women’s Under 20 team at a tournament in Spain next week. Hempen’s being called on to help coach and make selections for the next U-20 squad; at this level it’s a great honor for the team. The women’s team also has a scrimmage at Kittredge Field (or the indoor practice bubble if weather is bad) next Wednesday.

It’s a shame the weather might not hold, because the Colorado Can Cup up in Lyons tomorrow looks like a good way for cyclists to get their fix in a fast, fun team sport. I’ll probably be up there early afternoon so long as we aren’t snowed in.

Also this weekend, the CU men’s lacrosse club team takes to Kittredge Friday night and Sunday at noon. The women’s team takes on Colorado State Saturday at Kittredge at 4:00 p.m. – a heated game anyways with the rivalry, but even more so because they’re two of the top teams in the nation.
