Main Story: UCCS is tied for seventh in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference men’s basketball preseason poll, while forward Brody Hull earned a spot on the Preseason All-RMAC team. The Mountain Lions open their season at home Nov. 13 against Cameron University.

By the Numbers
  • UCCS received 111 points, tying Colorado Christian for seventh among 15 teams.
  • Hull averaged 12.3 points and 4.9 rebounds per game in 2025-26.
  • Black Hills State led the poll with 192 points and 12 first-place votes.
Yes, But

UCCS finished eighth last season and was eliminated from the RMAC Tournament by Black Hills State by one point. The preseason ranking puts the Mountain Lions near the middle of the conference field, but Hull’s selection gives the team an established offensive centerpiece.

What's Next

UCCS begins the 2026-27 season Nov. 13 at home against Cameron, with tipoff scheduled for 3 p.m. MT.

Bottom Line

The poll sets a modest baseline for UCCS; Hull’s return and the season opener are the first markers of whether the Mountain Lions can climb the RMAC standings.
