DURHAM, N.C.—Sixth-seeded Colorado is set to open its NCAA Tournament run against 11th-seeded Middle Tennessee at the historic Cameron Indoor Stadium on Saturday (5 p.m. MT/ESPNews).
The first-round game will be Colorado's first-ever experience in one of college basketball's most storied venues.
"I don't think I really thought about it," senior Jaylyn Sherrod commented about playing at Cameron Indoor. "That's all you hear growing up as a kid, maybe more so on the men's side, but it's another opportunity to get out here [and play]."
The Buffs met the media on Friday and got their first chance to step on Coach K Court, an experience that was brand new to the roster last season in Iowa City.
