Football roundup: Legend upsets Regis Jesuit in 5A top-10 matchup

(Corey Guildner) Legend picked up a major top-10 win on Friday night.
The Titans, ranked No. 10 in Class 5A, built on a hot start en route to a 31-7 road upset of No. 7 Regis Jesuit.
The win was led by seniors Kalen Shoemaker and Connor Eise, who each had two touchdowns: Shoemaker with one throwing and one rushing, and Eise with two on the ground.
Legend is now off to a 3-0 start for the second consecutive season, and the win marked a program first for the Titans, who had yet to beat Regis Jesuit. The schools met each of the past two seasons.
Five minutes in, Legend took a 7-0 lead when Eise snuck in on the left side from 1-yard out.
Then early in the second quarter, on third down, Shoemaker rolled to his right and threw back left, finding Carter Helfrich on a 10-yard score that made it 14-0.
A few minutes after that, Shoemaker dashed 90 yards on the ground to make it 21-0.
Regis scored just before halftime to cut the lead to 21-7 when Dervin Taylor scored up the middle from 10 yards out.
Legend added a 25-yard field goal from Caden Smith, and it was 24-7.
In the fourth, Eise capped the scoring with a 25-yard touchdown.

6-man: (1) Fleming 32, (5) Prairie 8
Scoreless at halftime, and a one-score game after three quarters, Fleming broke things open to come up with a major top-5 win on Friday night.
“We did some things well, and there’s some things we definitely have to work on, but I guess we did enough well,” Fleming coach John King told the Scoreboard Show.
A defensive struggle through the first two quarters, Fleming scored two touchdowns in the first minute of the third quarter to go up 16-0.
“We finally kind of settled down and started executing better offensively, and then really had all the momentum in the world,” King said. “The next two possessions in a row, we turned the ball over. We could have really taken the game over, but we just kept shooting ourselves in the foot and let them hang around.”
Prairie scored two minutes after that, making it 16-8 heading to the final frame.
Fleming scored on the third play of that fourth quarter, pushing their lead to 24-8, and added a final score with 4:31 to play on fourth down.
“It was a really nice battle for us,” King said. “We had some kids who are starting for us the first time this year.”

2A: (3) Sterling 31, (5) Platte Valley 21
Kaeden Sheets threw four touchdowns as Sterling held off a rally from Platte Valley to win the top-5 battle.
Sheets’ big night started off with three first-quarter touchdowns, two to Tucker Myers, as the Tigers built an 18-0 lead.
Sterling’s lead grew to 24-7 with 6:12 to play in the third quarter when Sheets found Jackson Keil from 6 yards out.
Platte Valley rallied. McDaniel had a 2-yard run with 4:35 left in the third, and two minutes after that, McDaniel hit Lauer for a 12-yard score to make it 24-21.
In the fourth quarter, Peyton Rose sealed the game with an 8-yard run.

3A: (5) Mead 35, (6) Fort Morgan 0

More photos from the game. (Brad Cochi) A week after dropping a tough game to Roosevelt in OT, No. 5 Mead rebounded in a big way with a win over No. 6 Fort Morgan.
“It was a fun night to be a part of Mead,” Mead coach Jason Klatt told the Scoreboard Show.

Brighton, Windsor, Pine Creek boys golfers shoot under par

(Dan Mohrmann/CHSAANow.com) For the second Thursday in a row, several Colorado high school boys golfers managed to get to their respective clubhouses after playing rounds under par.
Brighton’s Kyle Leydon had the best day of any of them as he helped Brighton claim the EMAC North tournament at Thorncreek. His 6-under-par 66 was the best round of the day throughout the entire state.
He made quick work of the front 9, getting out in just 30 shots thanks in big part to a 5-hole birdie streak starting on the par-5 third hole. His momentum cooled after the turn as he match his three birdies on the back 9 with three bogeys. Nonetheless, his 66 was 17 shots better than Prairie View’s Keagan Bond who finished second.
Pine Creek sophomore Wesley Erling took advantage of his him course and putted well despite the greens being recently aerated. He made back-to-back bogeys on No. 2 and No. 3 before getting both those strokes back with an eagle and the par-5 fourth.
Erling putted well at Pine Creek GC but also hit the occasional bomb #copreps pic.twitter.com/eyuJeJ2JXh
— Daniel Mohrmann (@DanMohrmann) September 3, 2020
He was comfortably at 4-under on the back but made bogey on three of his final four holes to win the Pine Creek Invite with a 71.
Windsor’s Brentyn Paiz had an adventurous route to his 71. He made a bogey on his second hole (No. 12) at Pelican Lakes but quickly moved under par with an eagle on 15. He made bogeys on 3 and 9 but still got through the stretch at even par thanks a birdie on No. 5.
He was even heading into 10, his 18th hole of the day, but finished his round off with a birdie to become the only player at the tournament to shoot a red number.

Friday Night Lights in April: Schools light their stadiums for students
The Be The Light, Colorado movement continued to spread through the end of its first week with an inspirational display of Friday Night Lights in April.
The #BeTheLightCO trend, which started with five schools and districts on Monday night, and continued with 12 more on Tuesday, and 16 on Wednesday, has now spread across nearly 70 schools and school districts around the state.
The movement seeks to provide a beacon of hope for students during the COVID-19 pandemic, which has closed schools and put the season on hold. Schools and school districts are lighting their stadiums as a way to show students they are in our hearts and on our minds.
Among those taking part since Wednesday:
