The recent editions of the volleyball versions of the Rocky Mountain Showdown have been incredibly competitive. They also haven’t been kind to the home team. That trend continued on Friday night, as Colorado State salvaged a split of this year’s home-and-home set by topping Colorado 21-25, 25-20, 27-25, 25-17 at the CU Events Center. The Buffs posted a four-set win at CSU’s Moby Arena on Thursday night, and the teams also split last year’s home-and-home series with the road team recording reverse sweeps on the other team’s floor in both contests (winning three straight sets after falling behind 2-0).
