CHADRON, Neb. โ€“ Chadron State women’s basketball will take the court for the first time in 2025 by welcoming two Colorado-based RMAC opponents to the Chicoine Center. 

The Eagles (2-8, 1-3 RMAC) will start the week against Colorado School of Mines (3-9, 1-3 RMAC) on Thursday at 5 p.m. before facing Regis (5-6, 3-1 RMAC), the two-time defending RMAC Tournament champions, on Saturday at 1 p.m.

Both games will be streamed by CSC Live on the RMAC Network. Fans can also follow the game via live stats.

Ticket Deal

Tickets remain available for Eagle fans to watch Thursday and Saturday’s games in person. To celebrate back-to-school for the Chadron School District, tickets to this weekend’s basketball games will be buy-one-get-one-free at the door for parents of Chadron public school students.

Looking Back

Chadron State suffered a pair of road losses back on December 12 and 14, falling 72-61 to CSU Pueblo and 82-66 to UCCS. The ThunderWolves and Mountain Lions are a combined 7-1 in RMAC play so far.

The Eagles finished strong in both games, outscoring CSU Pueblo 18-9 in the fourth quarter and outscoring UCCS 38-35 in the second half of last month’s defeats.

On a Roll

One player looking to pick up where she left off over winter break is junior Kylie Krise, who has led the team in scoring during three of the Eagles’ last four games, including two career-high outputs. 

Back on December 12-14, Krise led CSC in scoring twice and averaged seven rebounds per game. Krise scored 11 points with three made three-pointers against CSU Pueblo before going off for a career-high 25 points against the Mountain Lions.

Against UCCS, Krise shot 6 of 9 from the field, made two threes, and hit 11 of 14 free-throw attempts to rank among the top five in most free throw attempts in a game by an RMAC player this year. Krise’s 25-point career-high surpassed her previous career high of 23 set twice, including on December 5 against South Dakota Mines.

On the season, Krise is averaging 11.4 points per game (third on the team) and 5.2 rebounds per game (second on the team).
