Denver off to second-best start in program's DI history ahead of final February home matches

The Pioneers moved to 6-0 on the season with a big team win, 4-3, at Utah State on February 11. With the wins, Denver has matched the second-best start to a dual season in the program's Division I history and the best since 2020.
