Three of the four Americans headed to Paris for lead and bouldering — Colin Duffy, Brooke Raboutou and Natalia Grossman — spent their youth at ABC Kids Climbing in Boulder. There, the trio padded the city’s reputation as one of America’s premier climbing hotspots.

  • Professional Women’s Hockey League stopping in Denver on “Takeover Tour”
    Denver Post, Monday - 11/18/2024 - 05:29 PM

    The Professional Women’s Hockey League is stopping in Denver during its PWHL Takeover Tour next year. The Montreal Victoire will take on the Minnesota Frost on Jan. 12 at Ball Arena. It will be the third stop on a nine-date tour featuring regular-season games played in neutral sites, the league announced Monday. “Bringing PWHL games to fans across both countries is a natural next step as we continue building our audience,” PWHL senior vice president of business operations Amy Scheer said in a news release. It’s a homecoming for Minnesota goaltender Nicole Hensley, a Lakewood native who is a fixture on the United States national team and a two-time Olympian.

    Denver Post, Monday - 11/18/2024 - 04:48 PM

    Troy Renck: Bo Nix proved himself as a franchise quarterback against the Chiefs. On Sunday, he announced himself as the NFL’s best rookie quarterback. Who says no?

    Sean Payton ended his Monday conference call with a quip. “It’s Bo Nix day, huh?” he said with a dash of (perhaps forced) incredulity after nearly every question centered on his rookie quarterback. Sunday certainly was. Nix turned in the best game of his career in shredding the Falcons in a 38-6 win.

    Denver Post, Monday - 11/18/2024 - 04:03 PM

    A loss in the Summit League championship game didn’t come at much of a cost to the University of Denver men’s soccer program. Instead, the Pioneers’ overall body of work won over the selection committee as DU was given the No. 3 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament bracket revealed on Monday morning. With the seed, the Pios received a bye into the second round of the tournament and a date with the winner of Thursday’s first-round match between Oregon State and Gardner-Webb.
