Wanted to start this thread to report on any pre-season scheduling, roster or other interesting news that pop up for the volleyball team as they're less than 2 months, with their 1st matches scheduled to be at a 2 day tourney being hosted by UNC-Charlotte.
To start with, this season's general schedule has just been announced. (Note- the schedule is more general than the one released yesterday by the soccer team, with exact dates and opponents for some of the pre-season matches not finalized yet, as well as where matches may be viewed.)

BOULDER – The University of Colorado volleyball team announced it's upcoming 2021 fall schedule Wednesday afternoon.
The team begins action Aug. 27 in North Carolina in a tournament against UNC Charlotte and Xavier. The team then competes in the Pac-12 vs. BIG TEN Challenge at the University of Illinois against the Illini and Iowa.
Colorado opens home action Sept. 10 in the Buffs Invitational against Northern Colorado, Texas Tech and San Jose State. Non-conference competition concludes with the Battle for the Golden Spike against CSU in a home-and-home matchup Sept. 16 and 18.
The Buffs begin conference competition at Washington State on Sept. 22 then at home against Utah in the same weekend. The teams repeat with a host of Washington then at Utah to end the season. Colorado hosts the Oregon schools following the first Utah matchup before going to Los Angeles, the Bay area schools and then close the first half hosting the Arizona schools.
The second half starts in Oregon before hosting the Southern California schools. After a trip to Arizona, Colorado returns for three at home against the Bay schools and Washington before ending at Utah.
A dozen of the Buffs matches are scheduled to air live on the Pac-12 Networks. Colorado athletics announced last week 100 percent fan capacity allowed at all events this fall. For more information on volleyball season tickets click here.
