The CU Athlete app allows for Colorado NCAA Athletes to easily log their fueling station attendance, check their Gold Card balances, RSVP and check in to department events and more! The app is used by every single Colorado student-athlete on every team daily.
Learn about how the app was created to version 3.0 (The current version is version 6) (Previously known as the “CU Buffs Fueling Station App”) (using Archive.org because when learning how to self-host I accidentally deleted my previous WordPress site).
