Switchbacks’ Road Unbeaten Streak Signals Shift in Mentality, McCann Says

Colorado Springs Pueblo, CO, October 16, 2026 —

Colorado Springs Switchbacks coach Alan McCann views the team’s recent four-game unbeaten streak away from home as evidence of a change in mentality, one he expects to help the club in its playoff push.

The streak is the central development in McCann’s assessment of the team. He believes the results on the road signify a shift in how the Switchbacks approach matches away from home. The available information does not specify what changed in the team’s mentality or how McCann reached that conclusion.

McCann expects the shift to be beneficial as Colorado Springs pursues a place in the playoffs. The statement links the unbeaten run to the team’s postseason ambitions, but no details were provided about the Switchbacks’ position in the standings, their playoff prospects or the schedule ahead.

The identities of the four opponents, the dates of the matches and their individual results were not provided. It is also unclear whether the streak consists of wins, draws or a combination; the only reported result is that the team remained unbeaten across four road games.

No further comments from McCann or other team representatives were included in the available summary. It also did not provide details about the players or performances involved in the run.

For now, McCann’s view is that the four-game stretch reflects a meaningful change in mentality and could support the Switchbacks’ playoff push. The specific evidence behind that assessment, and the team’s next steps, were not provided.
