Dry eyes were few and far between at the CU Events Center on Saturday as the Colorado Buffaloes stunned the No. 2 Arizona Wildcats on Senior Night. Evan Battey, one of the most beloved Colorado athletes of all time and one of the four seniors being honored, received a message from a few of his former teammates on the jumbotron after the game and was overcome with emotion.
McKinley Wright IV, D’Shawn Schwartz and Tyler Bey all had kind words for their friend and former teammate. Battey, Wright, Schwartz and Bey were all members of Colorado’s 2017 recruiting class, now revered as one of the best groups in program history.
