DSST: Byers boys basketball upsets No. 2 Northfield in 4A

(Photo: Liz Levy) DSST: Byers picked up perhaps the biggest win in the history of its young basketball program on Saturday.
The Falcons, who reside a few blocks northwest of Wash Park in Denver, knocked off Class 4A’s second-ranked Northfield with a 70-65 win. In just their second year of varsity competition, the 3A team is now 16-1 this season, and ranked No. 8 in the latest RPI standings.
Led by a group of seven seniors on a 10-player roster, including Kyrie Thomas and Elijah Thatch, DSST: Byers has won eight games in a row. Their 16 wins match last season’s win total, when they went 16-7 and advanced to the 3A state tournament after winning their district.
The Falcons finish the regular season with games against Ridge View Academy and Vanguard in the final week of the season.

5A girls swimming: Late rush gives Fairview second straight title

(Ryan Casey/CHSAANow.com) THORNTON — All Fairview had to do was bide its time, wait out the early Cherry Creek rush and strike when the time was right.
And strike the Knights did.
After the Bruins built a four-point lead after the 200-yard freestyle relay, the Knights shifted gears and added team points in bunches. That approach gave them 382.5 points and a second straight Class 5A state swimming and diving title.
“Both (titles) are really special,” junior Jenna Reznicek said. “This year especially because we weren’t sure we were going to win. Last year we lost a lot of crucial swimmers.”
Co-head coach Stacey Tobey had faith that her girls could get it done, but the early results of the meet weren’t trending in their favor. After the 200 individual medley the Bruins held a 110-102 lead over the Knights.
But for a brief moment, fans were able to forget about the team race and appreciate what was happening right in front of them. Fossil Ridge sophomore Lucy Bell jumped out to a quick lead in that 200 individual medley and as the race got closer to ending, her lead only got bigger.

(Ryan Casey/CHSAANow.com) By the time she hit the freestyle leg — the final leg — her lead was nearly half the pool. She touched the wall in one minute, 58.16 seconds. With two years still to swim, there’s a chance that she could pull of a rare feat in taking Regis Jesuit legend Missy Franklin’s name off the wall. Franklin holds the record in the event at 1:56.85.
“I know if I put in the work and the training I could do that in the next two years and it’s really exciting,” Bell said. “A lot of it I couldn’t do without my teammates behind be. I want to compete for them too because they help me a tremendous amount.”
That same event saw Teagan Steinmetz and Jenna Smith from Cherry Creek both finish in the top six to give the Bruins the team lead for the first time of the night. It was short-lived however, as Morgan Lukianc took fifth in the 50 freestyle for Fairview, giving the defending champions the lead once again.
Bell later added a gold medal in the 100 freestyle.
But from that point on it was Creek and Fairview trading places at the top of the team standings. Tobey had to admit that after the 50 freestyle, confidence started to waiver a bit.
“After the 50 and heading into diving, we didn’t have a diver that qualified and Cherry Creek had one that finished (sixth),” she said. “So we were a little nervous.”
Those nerves were settled after Reznicek took second in the 100 backstroke and freshman Ella Ziegert came in sixth.
The Knights jumped up 312-271 and never looked back. (Find full results on this PDF. The Team Manager file is available here.)
“I knew it was going to be close,” Reznicek said. “During that race I was really swimming for the team and the points.”
The Knight didn’t take a gold medal in a single event, but the overall depth of the squad was the primary factor in getting the program its fourth overall title.
The 200 freestyle relay saw a record fall as Chatfield swam the race in 1:34.12, beating Fossil Ridge’s time of 1:34.15 in 2018.
Kathryn Shanley was a part of that relay team and also claimed gold medals in the 200 and 500 freestyle.
Both Shanley and Bell figure to make the 2021 meet one for the ages. Now it becomes a year-long waiting game to see if they can add their names to the record book.

Columbine’s Luke O’Brien lifts No. 7 Rebels over rival Dakota Ridge
LITTLETON — Columbine senior Luke O’Brien wasn’t happy sitting on the bench before the start of the second half Friday night.
The Rebels — No. 7 in the current CHSAANow.com Class 5A boys basketball rankings — were clinging to a 30-28 halftime lead against area-rival Dakota Ridge. The future University of Colorado hoopster did something about it.
“I was just staring at the ground and picturing myself just taking over,” O’Brien said about what was going through his mind before the start of the third quarter. “Sometimes that all it takes.”

(Dennis Pleuss/Jeffco Athletics) O’Brien took over scoring a dozen points in the first three minutes of the second half to bolt Columbine (17-3, 5-1 in 5A Jeffco League) out to nearly a double-digit lead. The Rebels pulled away in the fourth quarter to take a 68-48 home victory over the Eagles.
“He is so good,” Dakota Ridge coach Sean Kovar said of O’Brien. “For us he was basically unguardable. We threw a bunch of different looks and guys at him. He is a stud.”
The senior finished with 34 points. The second highest scoring output of the season for O’Brien. His season-high is 38 points scored against Poudre back before Winter Break.
“I had to get our team going. We were kind of slow at the beginning,” O’Brien said. “Whatever the team needs … that’s what I’m there for.”
Senior Jeff Potts, along with juniors Tristan Alward and Garrett Rogers combined for 26 points to help Columbine out offensively. The Rebels were shorthanded with senior center Justin Lohrenz not in the line-up.
“We’ve played without J-Lo (Justin Lohrenz) before. He is obviously a big missing piece,” Alward said of Lohrenz, who is expected to be back on the court next Wednesday when the Rebels are at Arvada West. “It’s just grit, focusing on the defensive end, finding open shots and get Luke O’Brien downhill. We found a way.”
While O’Brien scored 23 points in the second half, Dakota Ridge (9-12, 4-2) could only muster up 20 points after hanging with Columbine through the first half.

(Dennis Pleuss/Jeffco Athletics) Junior Taeshaud Jackson Jr. scored a team-high 16 points, including an impressive breakaway dunk for the Eagles’ lone field goal in the fourth quarter. Senior Brayden Rhoads contributed 14 points in the second straight conference loss after starting 4-0 in league play.
“Defensively they were awesome,” Kovar said. “They took us out of what we like to do. They played better than us tonight.”
Columbine coach Clay Thielking agreed that defense is what turned it around in the second half.
“We challenge them as a group to toughen it up on defense and dig a little deeper,” Thielking said of the talk at halftime. “I thought our defense was the key. That led to some offense on the other end. I though Luke had a good night.”
Despite a 7-game winning streak, Columbine still doesn’t control its own destiny when it comes to claiming a second straight 5A Jeffco League championship. It was a logjam atop the conference standings before action Friday night.
No. 5 Ralston Valley, No. 7 Columbine, No. 8 Valor Christian, Dakota Ridge and Arvada West all had just one loss in conference play with the end of the league season in sight. There are still several different scenarios heading into the final week of the regular season.
Dakota Ridge is likely out of the mix for a league title, but Kovar knows it’s important to close strong before the playoffs.
“We are just worried about Ralston Valley on Wednesday,” Kovar said. “It’s all about RV and they are another great team.”
The Rebels close out their regular season with a non-league home game against Douglas County on Monday before league games at Arvada West (Wednesday) and at home against Chatfield (Friday).
“It’s going to be a really tough week. Those are three really good teams,” Thielking said. “You want to be healthy going into the (state) tournament and riding some momentum going into it.”
Despite the chance to have a 20-win regular season, O’Brien believes Columbine hasn’t peaked yet when it comes to its play on the court.
“I think we have a lot more in us,” O’Brien said. “We didn’t shoot the ball well tonight. We turned the ball over on careless mistakes. Our ceiling is still up there. We haven’t hit our full potential. Come playoff time we are going to be there.”
