BOULDER— The Colorado soccer season hosted its annual year-end banquet this past Sunday, putting an end to a crazy 2020 season. The team gathered atop Folsom Field to hand out awards and turn attention to the 2021 season.
Colorado finished the unusual season with a 9-6-2 overall record. CU beat three ranked opponents in the same season for the first time and was one of 48 teams to be included in the shrunk-down NCAA Tournament field. The tournament selection CU's fourth in the last five seasons and 12th overall.
