Wyoming Aircraft's Greeley Turn Points to Research Fleet

N2UW is UW's NSF-backed atmospheric-science King Air, and public project records show prior Greeley-area research use.

N2UW is registered to the University of Wyoming, but UW identifies this airframe as the NSF/UW King Air atmospheric research aircraft, separate from the school's passenger aircraft. UW said instrument test flights were expected into 2026, and project records show prior Greeley-area instrument and research flights.

That makes the June 20 Greeley turn better read as research, test, or maintenance context than athletics. The exact June 20 assignment still is not public.
