Denver U Withdraws Preliminary Missouri Valley Application
Denver University announced by Chancellor A C Nelson that it has withdrawn its preliminary application for Missouri Valley Conference affiliation. The move aims to keep solid ties with the Mountain States Conference while pursuing a unified Rocky Mountain conference for regional athletic prestige and cross-league appeal. The decision follows criticism from Valley members who accused Denver of trying to professionalize athletics and jeopardize academics. The Pioneers football season record stands at five losses, one tie, and two wins.
