SAN FRANCISCO – The Colorado Buffaloes were one of four Pac-12 programs honored by the league in the annual Pac-12 Zero Waste Challenge, presented by Eco-Product.
CU won for "best use of innovation" and was judged during the football game against Oregon State on Nov. 6. The game was also the Buffs Homecoming game, a 37-34 double-overtime contest in front of a near-capacity of just under 48,000 fans.
Long since the national leader in the collegiate sustainability space, Colorado's Ralphie's Green Stampede was the first NCAA Division I athletics sustainability program, which debuted in 2008.
