  • Lack of snow causes postponement of race at Ski Cooper on Friday

    The state’s skiing schedule is scheduled to get underway on Friday, but a lack of snow at the mountain has caused one of the two events to be postponed.

    Seven teams were slated to compete in the giant slalom at Ski Cooper. A lack of accumulated snow on the mountain, combined with a forecast of high winds and dry conditions through the week, have caused it to cancelled. The event will be moved to a new location the week prior to the state championships.

    Lake County, Middle Park, Aspen, Clear Creek, Nederland, Platte Canyon and Summit were scheduled to race at Ski Cooper on Friday.

    The giant slalom event scheduled to be held at Beaver Creek on Friday remains on as scheduled. Teams competing include Battle Mountain, Colorado Rocky Mountain, Durango, Evergreen, Eagle Valley, Vail Mountain and Steamboat Springs.

  • All-state football teams for the 2017 season

    The 2017 all-state football teams are presented by CHSAANow.com, ColoradoPreps.com and MaxPreps.

    These teams were created following a lengthy process which included nominations from leagues, and then a vote of head coaches across the state.

    Players were placed onto the first-team, second-team and honorable mention based upon the number of votes they received. In 5A-1A, spots were reserved for linemen and one kicker/punter, while 8-man reserved spots for linemen.

    CHSAA does not determine who makes or doesn’t make the team; they are created entirely from the results of the coaches’ vote.

  • State spirit championships: Vail Christian wins seventh-straight 2A poms title

    DENVER — Vail Christian won its seventh-straight title in 2A poms at Saturday’s state spirit championships.

    “It’s crazy. I’ve been here every year we’ve won, because my older sisters were both on the team,” Vail Christian captain Isabelle Carlson said. “How far this team has come this year is really inspiring. We pulled it together and got it done.”

    Patti Carlson — in her seventh year as the coach of the Saints — has a state championship for every year dating back to 2011. Vail Christian has not won a title in any other sport.

    “I’m so proud of these girls,” Patti Carlson said. “These kids did everything. They’re smart, they work hard. We’re here, and we won.”

    The championship win puts the Saints in a tie for the eighth-most spirit spirit titles in state history.

    Vail Christian turned in a score of 76.9833 to beat out Sanford, who finished with a final score of 68.9333. The Saints made it to the finals with a score of 77.3833 in Friday’s competition.

    “Our school is small, so it feels like a family,” Patti Carlson said. “We’ve had so many sisters on our team. It’s family support.”

    Elsewhere in poms, Bayfield took the 3A title over Aspen with an impressive score of 84.9167. Bayfield finished runner-up at last year’s competition.

    Wheat Ridge claimed a repeat title in 4A with its score of 88.4333. Valor Christian edged out Erie to take second place with an 85.0333.

    ThunderRidge won its first title in 5A poms with a score of 94.2333. Grandview finished in second for a second straight runner-up finish.

    Cherokee Trail won the school’s first title in 5A cheer, beating last year’s champion Rock Canyon.

    Valor Christian won the 4A championship by virtue of a tiebreak over Thompson Valley. The two teams tied with 83.0500 points, but Valor had a higher average score from the cheer judges, which gave them the title.

    Valor Christian won the 2016 title, while Thompson Valley finished runner-up.

    In 3A, The Academy topped Pinnacle and Prospect Ridge with a score of 80.35. That’s the school’s first 3A cheer title.

    Highland won a second-straight title in 2A cheer, finishing ahead of Cheyenne Wells.
