  • Three new teams join 4A baseball rankings

    Things got a bit crazy when this week’s Class 4A baseball poll was released.

    Three new teams — Pueblo West, Pueblo East and Mountain View — joined CHSAANow.com’s ranking after going unranked in the preseason.

    Pueblo West jumped all the way up to No. 3 following its 4-0 start which includs a win over then-No. 4 Palmer Ridge, as well as an impressive showing at a tournament in New Mexico.

    Pueblo East is No. 5 this week, while Mountain View is No. 8.

    Green Mountain remained No. 1 in the 4A poll. In fact, none of the No. 1s changed from the preseason, meaning Regis Jesuit (5A), Eaton (3A), Resurrection Christian (2A) and Dove Creek (1A) all held firm.

    In 5A, Columbine joined the poll at No. 9. They were the lone newcomer to that ranking.

    The 3A poll added La Junta (No. 10), while Dayspring Christian (No. 9) and Dolores (No. 10) are new to 2A. 1A added No. 9 Springfield and No. 10 Fleming.

    The rankings, voted upon by coaches and select media members, are the official polls of the Association.

    Complete rankings for all classes are below.

  • Football roundup: Rocky Mountain holds firm to hold on and beat ThunderRidge

    ThunderRidge stood on Rocky Mountain’s 3-yard-line with one second to play. Score a touchdown, and you win.

    Well, for Rocky, it was, hold firm and you win. The No. 2-seeded Lobos did just that, notching a sack on the final play to preserve a 7-3 win over No. 7 ThunderRidge in the first round of the Class 5A football playoffs.

    “We couldn’t get things going offensively, but we battled back at the end and we were able to make a stop when we needed to,” Rocky Mountain coach Mark Brook told Colorado Preps’ Scoreboard Show. “It was pretty darn close.”

    The game’s only touchdown came when Rocky’s Tausolia Liufau recovered a fumble in the end zone in the second quarter.

    “I was on a blitz and saw Scottie (Creighton) knock the ball out,” Liufau told the Fort Collins Coloradoan. “It was a great play by him. I just jumped on it in the endzone.”

    Rocky Mountain will play Fountain-Fort Carson in the second round. The Trojans beat Westminster 35-6 on Friday night.

    “I know for a fact that that’s an athletically gifted team,” Brook said. “They have a couple of people who are really special, and that’s a hard-nosed football team.”

    2A playoffs: (7) Montezuma-Cortez 40, (10) St. Mary’s 37

    In the lone 2A playoff game of the night, Montezuma-Cortez built up a 33-7 lead at halftime, only to watch it slowly evaporate in the third quarter, and again the fourth.

    Eventually, St. Mary’s rattled off 30 unanswered points to take a 37-33 lead with two minutes remaining. But Montezuma-Cortez was able to rally itself for the win.

    “We thought we had it in the bag at the halftime, and I told our kids, ‘We have one more half.’ They didn’t show up until the last two minutes of that game,” Montezuma-Cortez coach Casey Coulter told the Scoreboard Show. “It was a wild one.

    “We came out flat (in the second half). And hat’s off to St. Mary’s,” Coulter said. “I mean they were a different team in the second half. They did everything right, we did everything wrong. And you can’t do that. We got lucky.”

    According to Colorado Preps, it is the first postseason win for Montezuma-Cortez in 57 years.

    The Panthers will play the winner of Saturday’s game between No. 2 Kent Denver and No. 15 La Junta in the second round.

    3A: (1) Discovery Canyon 34, (10) Canon City 31 (OT)

    The top-ranked Thunder narrowly escaped the upset in this one.

    Canon City actually had a shot at a winning field goal in the final seconds of regulation, but the kicking team couldn’t get lined up in time before the clock ran out.

    In overtime, Canon City kicked a field goal — and then Discovery Canyon’s Spencer Chambers scored the winning 1-yard touchdown on the ensuing possession.

    With the win, Discovery Canyon is likely to end up as No. 1 in the final Wild Card points. The 3A bracket will be set on Sunday.

    Canon City wide receiver Zach Manchester had 18 catches in the game, according to the Canon City Daily Record. That is the fourth-highest mark in state history.

    3A: Delta 27, (8) Palisade 24 (OT)

    Likely needing a win to make the 3A playoff field, Delta first tied the game with a 21-yard field goal from Abraham Ontiveros with 20 seconds left in regulation.

    Ontiveros then hit a second field goal in overtime to pull off the upset.

    “We got to about the 3 (yard-line) and couldn’t quite get it in (during regulation), and (Ontiveros) banged it in,” Delta coach Ben Johnson told the Scoreboard Show. “Then in overtime, we had intercepted a pass, so we ran it a couple of times and lined him up in the middle, and he hit that one through.

    “He’s just a good, clutch kid and he made some big plays for us.”

    5A playoffs: (2) Fairview 41, (7) Castle View 21

    For a little while, Fairview looked to be in a bit of trouble.

    Heading into the fourth quarter, the second-seeded Knights led No. 7 Castle View just 20-13 and faced 4th-and-1 at their own 47.

    Well, junior Carlo Kemp rumbled for 20 yards to pick up that first down. Two plays later, Jason Harvey scored — and Fairview exhaled.

    “We did a nice job of overcoming some things tonight,” Kemp told BoCoPreps.com after the game.

    Fairview quarterback Johnny Feauto threw for 395 yards and two touchdowns, according to the paper.

    The Knights advance to play No. 3 Overland in the next round. The Trailblazers beat No. 6 Denver East 45-21 on Friday night.

     5A playoffs: (2) Valor Christian 48, (7) Horizon 12

    This one, too, had the makings of an upset early.

    Valor Christian led just 7-6 late in the second quarter, but a 15-yard touchdown pass from Dylan McCaffrey to Sid Turnbull-Fraser just before the half made it 14-6 at the break.

    The Eagles then scored on their first possession of the second half, and got an interception return for a touchdown from Eric Lee Jr. on Horizon’s first drive to break the game open.

    McCaffrey finished 18-of-23 passing for 166 yards and three touchdowns, while Stone Watson rushed for 158 yards on 17 carries.

    Brian Dawkins Jr. also had an interception for Valor, his fourth of the season.

    Valor Christian will next play Mountain Vista, which beat Cherokee Trail in the first round.

    Notables

    • Greeley West staved off near disaster with a game-winning stop in overtime. Loveland nearly pulled off an upset in regulation, but a short field goal missed wide. In overtime, after Alex Silva’s 28-yard kick, the Spartans’ defense sacked Loveland quarterback Ayden Eberhardt on fourth down to preserve the win. Had Greeley West lost to the Indians (3-7), it was in danger from dropping out of the 4A playoff field. With the win, it appears safe.
    • No. 5 Lakewood beat No. 4 Prairie View in the 5A playoffs, 27-9. Prairie actually led 3-0 at halftime. “I think our kids were a little uptight in the first half,” Lakewood coach Jeff Braun told the Scoreboard Show. “I just told them, ‘Relax. We’ll make a few adjustments and we’ll go play.’ … Once we got up on them 7-3, the momentum swung to our side.”
    • Also in the 5A playoffs, Columbine, a No. 5 seed, handled No. 4 Rangeview 48-7.
    • Eaglecrest pulled away from Legacy with a 28-point fourth quarter to win a 5A playoff game, 49-27. It was another No. 5 seed beating a No. 4.
    • The lone No. 4 seed to win in the 5A playoffs was Bear Creek, which beat No. 5 Fossil Ridge 42-16.
    • Those upsets noted, higher-seeded teams in the 5A playoffs are 12-3 to this point.
    • Grandview, a No. 1 seed, rolled Brighton 51-0. Five different players had rushing touchdowns for the Wolves, led by Chuk Obinnah’s two.
    • There was just one playoff game Friday night in 1A: No. 2 Buena Vista beat No. 15 Hotchkiss, 41-7.

  • Football roundup: Obinnah helps Grandview outlast Eaglecrest in overtime

    Grandview’s Chukwuma Obinnah had a four-yard touchdown in overtime to lift the Wolves to a 34-27 overtime win against Eaglecrest on Friday night.

    Obinnah finished with 261 yards and five touchdowns on 39 carries.

    The night nearly belonged to Eaglecrest, which played the Wolves incredibly tight. The game was tied 7-7 at the half and Grandview led 14-13 after three quarters. The Wolves looked to have the game all but locked up when Obinnah made it 27-19 with 1:20 to play on his fourth touchdown.

    But Eaglecrest wouldn’t go quietly. Though a 65-yard touchdown pass at the start of the drive was called back on a penalty, Eaglecrest marched down to Grandview’s 14-yard-line with 12.1 seconds remaining. Then, the Raptors scored as time expired and converted a two-point conversion to tie the game at 27.

    That led to overtime, and Obinnah’s winning score.

    Grandview, ranked No. 3 in 5A, is now 5-0 to start the season.

    3A: D’Evelyn 34, Lewis-Palmer 33

    It seems we can’t go a week this season without updating the state record book in some fashion. Once again Friday, it was the single-game passing mark under assault.

    D’Evelyn quarterback Owen Burke threw for 535 yards and five touchdowns. That is now No. 5 all-time, and is the third time this season a quarterback has cracked the top-10. Holy Family quarterback Chris Helbig threw for 491 on Sept. 5, and Air Academy’s Adam Brown broke the state record last week by throwing for 589 yards.

    Meanwhile, Burke’s main target, Cameron Brown, had 316 receiving yards and caught all five scores. Both figures are tied for third-best in state history.

    Lewis-Palmer running back Charley Young, meanwhile, rushed for 331 yards and four touchdowns on 32 carries in the loss.

    When the night ended, the two teams had combined for 1,111 yards of total offense, which is now the eighth-most in state history.

    3A: (5) Rifle 36, (3) Delta 19

    Rifle jumped all over Delta early, leading 10-0 after the first quarter, and then cruised to the win.

    In fact, by the time Rifle led 16-0 midway through the second quarter, Delta didn’t yet have a first down, according to the Glenwood Springs Post-Independent.

    Rifle running back Brock Clark had three total touchdowns.

    “We had to fight for everything we got, so I’m extremely proud that, if we have to do that we were still able to score 36 points,” Rifle coach Damon Wells told the Post-Independent.

    2A: (4) Platte Valley 38, (5) Eaton 14

    The defending 2A champions notched an important league win over a rival on Friday.

    “Fantastic atmosphere,” Platte Valley coach Troy Hoffman Colorado Preps’ Scoreboard Show. “Football’s crazy. Anytime you’re playing such a big game, a rivalry game like this, and then also a league opener, it just added to the atmosphere and I’m very, very happy to come out on top tonight.”

    4A: (8) Greeley West 31, Greeley Central 14

    The Spartans are now 5-0 after going 1-9 last season.

    “Really, it started in December, just working in the offseason and changing our offense a little bit,” Greeley West coach Jason Renouf told the Scoreboard Show. “We really hit the weight room hard, and our kids have really bought into what we’re selling to them. It’s been great to be a part of.”

    6-man: (4) Peetz 42, (3) Fleming 28

    Peetz jumped out to a 28-0 lead at halftime and cruised from there.

    “I think we sent a message to everyone else in the conference that we’re to reckon with,” coach Scott Sorensen told the Scoreboard Show. “I know Pawnee’s got a really strong team; we still have Weldon Valley on our schedule, too. If we’re going to finish this out, we have to stay focused and play good football.”

    Peetz is now 4-1 this season.

    8-man: (4) Akron 20, (5) Merino 12

    The Rams won a physical top-10 game on Friday. Akron is now 5-0.

    “I knew going into the season that we were going to be young, but I knew were going to go have some talent,” Akron coach Jerome Weers told the Scoreboard Show. “I think to some extent, they’ve even exceeded at times my expectations. … They can play real well when they want to, and they play well as a group, and I couldn’t be prouder of them.”

    Notables

    • Two more running backs rushed for six touchdowns: Dakota Ridge’s Jeremy Lujan (who also had more than 300 yards), as well as Montrose’s Mike Rocha. They are the third and fourth players to do that this season.
    • Doherty running back TeQuan Baker went for 272 yards and four touchdowns in a 28-14 win over Castle View. Doherty is now 5-0.
    • Big plays: Sterling’s Ethan Rose hit Brennan Skerjanec on a 96-yard touchdown pass, and Longmont’s Ethan Gabrielle had a 92-yard score.
    • Columbine’s Jake Lowry threw four touchdowns in his team’s 56-35 win over Mullen. Yes, that’s correct. Surprisingly, though, that’s not a school record for the traditional rush-happy offense. That belongs to former Rebel great Danny Spond, who threw five against Thomas Jefferson in 2009. Still, Lowry’s performance even had former Columbine great and current Denver Broncos player Ryan Miller weighing in.
    • Adams City beat Aurora Central 24-21 and is now 4-1 for the first time since 2005, when the team actually started 4-0. The move to 4A has really helped the program. For perspective on the turnaround: Adams City won four total games from 2006-2013, going 4-76 over that span. One of those wins was a forfeit.
    • Air Academy had itself another wildly offensive game, and once again, the Kadets fell short. A week after losing 68-62 to Sand Creek, they lost 76-41 to Canon City. Canon City’s Trenton Stringari rushed for 255 yards and five touchdowns, according to the Canon City Daily Record. A week after breaking the state’s passing record, Air Academy quarterback Adam Brown threw for 352 yards and two touchdowns. Teammate Jalen Etsep had two kickoff returns for a score: 97 and 96 yards. Canon City’s Dacian Sullivan also had a kickoff return for a score (87 yards), part of a three touchdown night.
    • Mountain Vista moved to 5-0 with a 21-17 win over rival ThunderRidge. It is the first time in school history the Golden Eagles have won that game in nine tries. Vista quarterback Brock Rubley threw for 327 yards and two touchdowns, while Matt Yockey had 18 tackles and two sacks.
    • There were two instances where cross-town rivals played for the first time Friday: Longmont beat Silver Creek 42-21, while Chaparral beat Legend 33-30.
    • More rivalries: Heritage beat Arapahoe 23-14 for the Milk Can, while Harrison beat Sierra 25-9. It is Sierra’s first loss.
    • Green Mountain led Wheat Ridge 14-7 and 20-14 in the fourth quarter, but the Farmers rallied to take a 29-20 win.
    • In a game we previewed this week, No. 9 Berthoud moved to 5-0 with a 17-7 win over Erie in 3A.
    • Fountain-Fort Carson edged Douglas County 21-20 in overtime. FFC totally turned things around at halftime, when the Trojans were being shutout and had just one first down. Later, they rallied from down 13-7 with seven minutes to play.
    • Rangely topped Hayden in overtime, 20-14. Hayden made a goal-line stop to even get to overtime, but Rangely prevailed.
    • Palmer beat Sand Creek 35-28 in overtime to win on homecoming. Sand Creek tied the game with a touchdown in the final moments to force overtime.
    • Platte Canyon, No. 10 in 1A, beat Front Range Christian 29-0 to move to 4-1. “We preach that we’re going to try to improve every week,” Platte Canyon coach Mike Schmidt told the Scoreboard Show. “We’re young still, we’ve only got five seniors, so we feel like we’ve still got a long way to go, and a lot of improving to do.”
    • On its debut week in the 5A top-10, No. 10 Rocky Mountain beat Horizon 31-20.
    • In 3A, No. 8 Lamar beat No. 9 St. Mary’s 25-10.
    • Glenwood Springs upset 3A No. 10 Palisade, 17-10. It was sealed by a hard count which drew Palisade offside.
    • Hotchkiss knocked off 1A No. 7 Cedaredge, 27-13.
