Colorado prepares for NIT matchup with Texas Longhorns

Following a dominant 76-60 win over Norfolk State on Monday night, the Colorado Buffaloes basketball team finds itself in the third round of the NIT, just one win away from punching a ticket to Madison Square Garden in New York City for the tournament semifinals.

Colorado took an early 4-0 lead over the Norfolk State Spartans and never looked back. The Buffs did not trail once in the contest.

Despite a quiet night from sophomore point guard McKinley Wright IV, the Buffs still managed to have a solid outing against the Spartans. Wright IV played the second-most minutes of any Buffaloes player, but scored just six points, while turning the ball over a team-high four times.
