Homecoming Week is the perfect moment for Roadrunners to cheer on student-athletes and show off their Metropolitan State University of Denver Roadrunner pride. To help pack the stands, University Athletics gives employees two free tickets to every game.  

“This is a way to say ‘thank you’ for everything that faculty and staff members do to support Roadrunners Athletics,” said Todd Thurman, director of Athletics. 

Having faculty and staff members in attendance at games makes a difference for student-athletes.

Having faculty and staff members in attendance at games makes a difference for student-athletes. 

“MSU Denver is a place where you can have a meaningful impact on the life of a student,” Thurman said. “Having the opportunity to interact outside of the classroom allows our student-athletes to see faculty and staff members as more than just University employees. It also works in the other direction. The faculty and staff members get to see our student-athletes performing at their best while representing MSU Denver.”
