GRR: Colorado School of Mines
Take a ride south on I-25 from Denver, go through Colorado Springs, and at Pueblo, go west.
Get on State Route 50 and wind your way up through the Swatch Mountains and through the Gunnison National Forest, and after about three hours you’ll end up in Gunnison, Colo., the home of Western State Colorado University.
Colorado School of Mines remains atop the Rocky Mountain Men's DII after thumping Colorado 88-15 Saturday.
The Rocky Mountain Conference got a bit of a shakeup as Western State defeated defending conference champs Colorado School of Mines 34-28 Saturday.
It was a very physical game and Western State matched Mines well in the first half. The two teams traded tries before WSU scored midway through the first half and then right before the break to make it 19-7 at halftime.
With five new teams in the Rocky Mountain DII Men’s league, you wonder if the balance of power might shift.
