“I am eternally grateful to love what I do and who I do it with,” said Prigge. “We are thrilled to have the opportunity to continue growing and building Wyoming Volleyball for this community and the state of Wyoming. I want to thank Tom Burman, Taylor Stuemky and our entire administration for their support of the program and trust in our staff.

"Our athletics department is special because of the high-level commitment to every UW team. We truly are one state, one university and one team.”

In her first two campaigns at Wyoming, Prigge has led the Cowgirls to back-to-back national postseason appearances, UW has played in each of the last two NIVC Tournaments, advancing to the Great Eight Round in both seasons. In her two seasons, Prigge has led the Cowgirls to 39 victories.

As head coach, Prigge has guided six Cowgirls to All-Mountain West honors while seven student-athletes have been named to the CSC Academic All-District Team.

“Our future is bright and that is because of the group of young women that make up Cowgirl Volleyball. Their commitment to the development and growth of our program, is what I am most proud of and excited to continue. GO POKES!”

University of Wyoming’s Top 50 Football Players

During the summer of 2021, 7220Sports.com counted down the Top 50 football players in University of Wyoming history, presented by Premier Bone & Joint Centers, Worthy of Wyoming.

The rules are simple: What was the player's impact while in Laramie? That means NFL stats, draft status or any other accolade earned outside of UW is irrelevant when it comes to this list.

This isn't a one-man job. This task called for a panel of experts. Joining 7220's Cody Tucker are Robert GagliardiJared NewlandRyan Thorburn, and Kevin McKinney.

We all compiled our own list of 50 and let computer averages do the work. Think BCS -- only we hope this catalog is fairer.

Just The Facts: Size Doesn't Matter For Wyoming's War Memorial Stadium

Did you know it would take the populations of Gillette (32,857), Laramie (32,381), Rock Springs (23,319), Sheridan (17,844) and Wright (1,200) to create a sellout inside Michigan's famed 107,601-seat Big House, the largest college football stadium in the nation?

For those of you not familiar with the Cowboy State, those are Wyoming's third through sixth most inhabited cities, along with the small mining town in Campbell County.
