Gabby Carta-Samuels from CU volleyball facing mixed allegiances for Rocky Mountain Showdown

Gabby Carta-Samuels can feel the stares whenever she walks through the Colorado athletic department.

The glares don't come from fellow Buffaloes who are mad at her, or who don't wish her anything but the best every time she hits the court with the CU volleyball team. Yet the stares are enough to remind the senior that everyone knows who she is.

She's the young woman whose brother will be doing everything he can to topple the Buffaloes on Friday night.

While Carta-Samuels will be in Seattle competing with the CU volleyball team at the annual Pac-12/Big Ten Challenge her brother, Colorado State quarterback KJ Carta-Samuels, will be trying to build on a record-setting individual performance at the Buffaloes' expense.
