SAN DIEGO (AP) — The number of San Diego State teams that have won an NCAA Division I championship can be counted on one finger.Many Aztecs fans and alumni have no idea because it happened 50 years ago and the school dropped men’s volleyball in 2000. Brian Dutcher, who has been on campus for 24 years, does know about that championship and would love to double the school’s total when he coaches the Aztecs in their first Final Four. “Volleyball. Men’s volleyball. Chris Marlowe,” Dutcher said, referring to one of the stars of that 1973 team, who went on to win a gold medal at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics and once broadcast SDSU basketball games on local TV. “They’re hard to get so you value every one of them when you can get one.”SDSU’s first trip to the Final Four, secured with a nail-biting win against Creighton, has resonated with Aztecs alumni and fans, as well as throughout this championship-starved city. Even Bill Walton is stoked, which shows how big of a deal it is. The ...Aurora Police Department hits 'training milestone' in consent decree

DENVER (KDVR) — Upsizing from a condo to a house is not a huge difference in annual income in Denver, thanks in part to condo prices being already some of the nation's highest. Real estate news and analysis site Point2Home crunched housing data in 200 U.S. cities to find which cities have the lowest bar for condo owners to jump into a detached single-family house. Researchers calculated the "price difference to income ratio," or the number of years worth of income that it would take to match the difference between a condo and a detached home. Colorado had a bigger share of movers than any other state in 2021 Depending on the city, condo-owning Coloradans could need anywhere between two and four years' worth of income to afford a single-family home.In Lakewood, it takes an income of 3.9 years more to afford a single-family home than a condo, which is in the top 25% nationwide and about $303,000.
