Morning Sports: November 24, 2023

Wyoming Cowboy Football: The Wyoming Cowboy football team will conclude the 2023 regular season tomorrow at Nevada.

The Wolf Pack have a record of 2-9, and statistically have both the worst overall offense and defense in the Mountain West Conference.

This is UW’s last chance to win a road game this season, and Coach Craig Bohl says part of the reason why they haven’t been able to do it, is because this has been a weird year in the conference.

Kickoff tomorrow is scheduled for 7pm and you can hear the game LIVE on AM 1410 KWYO and 106.9 FM.

UW is currently tied for 5th in the conference with Fresno State.

Depending on how things shake down this weekend, the Pokes could finish as high as a tie for 3rd.

There are 4 teams ahead of Wyoming in the standings…and it just so happens those 4 teams all play each other this weekend.

Air Force plays at Boise State this afternoon, while San Jose State visits UNLV tomorrow.

University Of Wyoming College Basketball: The Wyoming Cowboys are back in action this Sunday at Texas.

Tip-off is scheduled for 1pm.

The Wyoming Cowgirls host BYU on Tuesday.

Tip-off for that game is scheduled for 6:30pm.

Sheridan High School Girls Wrestling: Practice for the upcoming high school basketball and wrestling season is already underway and practice for boys swimming starts on Monday.

Last year was the inaugural year for girls wrestling and Sheridan ended up with 1 state champion.

Junior Becca Oetken won the 235 pound weight class state championship, even though she was way less than that weight and competed at the 190 pound weight class before she decided to move up late last season.

She says last year was the honeymoon year for the sport, and for those who competed last year, the level of competition state-wide is about to pick up…ready or not!

Competition can start as early as Thursday, December 7th.

Denver Broncos Football: The Denver Broncos are looking to extend their 4-game win streak, when they host the Cleveland Browns this Sunday.

Kickoff is scheduled for 2:05pm.

A little bit of sad news to report…former Bronco lineman Harald Hasselbach died yesterday at age 56 from cancer.

He joined the team in 1994 and spent his entire 7-year NFL career with the team, starting in all 112 regular season games and helped the team win Super Bowl 32 and 33 back in the late 90’s.

Denver Nuggets Basketball: The Denver Nuggets dropped a 124-119 game at Orlando back on Wednesday, for their 3rd loss in the last 4 games.

The team is back on the court tonight at Houston, and then return home Sunday to play San Antonio.

Colorado Avalanche Hockey: The Colorado Avalanche won this past Wednesday at home vs. Vancouver 5-to-2.

The Avs are back on the ice tonight at Minnesota, and return home to play Calgary tomorrow and Tampa Bay on Monday.

Sheridan Hawks Hockey: The Sheridan Hawks are at home tonight and tomorrow against Cody, who is winless in 18 tries this season, while Sheridan is 4-and-16.

The puck is scheduled to drop at 7:30pm both nights.
