Boulder Local Frequency: Buffs Tournament Hope and Spring Community Moves

Description
Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Monday, March 9.

Boulderites, kick off your week with some electrifying local buzz. Our Colorado Buffaloes men's basketball team wrapped up the regular season with a gritty fight against No. 2 Arizona right here at the CU Events Center, falling 89-79 in a thriller that saw freshman star Isaiah Johnson drop a career-high 28 points, shattering the school's freshman scoring record. Now seeded No. 11 in the Big 12 Tournament, the Buffs face Oklahoma State tomorrow in the first round, their only shot at an NCAA bid hanging on this underdog run led by Johnson's heroics. Fans, rally at watch parties around Pearl Street to cheer them through what could be a season-defining miracle.

Just minutes away in Superior, tonight's Town Council meeting at 6 p.m. at Town Hall on Coal Creek Drive dives into community priorities, fresh off last week's talks on affordable housing near the RTD bus rapid transit site and a fun chainsaw wood carving event tied to the Mural Festival. Head over to weigh in on shaping Superior's future, or catch the Open Mic Night tomorrow at the Superior Community Center for local talent shining bright.

Over in Longmont, city leaders preview big moves tomorrow like annexing marijuana retail spots in Boulder County enclaves and unveiling the 2025 Sustainability Report, pushing greener living that hits home with water-wise Garden in a Box kits selling fast through Resource Central. Test a free all-electric induction cooktop at the Longmont Service Center, courtesy of Boulder County's lending program, and swap those gas stoves for cleaner cooking that slashes your energy bills. Music lovers, the Longmont Symphony Orchestra teams up with the museum Thursday for American classics from Dvorak to Copland at 7 p.m., tickets flying at longmontmuseum.org. Or unwind at Art and Sip watercolor classes same night, painting spring veggies at 4 or 6:30 p.m.

Creatives, Boulder's Fireside Ink nonprofit just launched IGNITE, their first playwriting festival for Colorado scribes, with submissions open till March 16 and winners getting staged readings May 9 at Junkyard Social Club, backed by the Boulder Arts Commission to fuel our theater scene ahead of Sundance's 2027 arrival. Catch live tunes tonight like Many Mountain's acoustic rock at 6 p.m. on Walnut Street or She's Green with Tiny Tomboy at eTown Hall.

As spring nears, Longmont reminds us to keep creeks pristine, ditching harsh detergents and picking up pet waste to protect our waterways. And Buffs faithful, that tournament grind reminds us resilience defines Boulder sports. Stay connected, stay active.

This has been Boulder Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
