Positive energy fueling Coal Ridge boys soccer’s fast start to the season

(Photo courtesy of Fil Meraz)

Of all the reasons that Coal Ridge boys soccer can point to when looking at early-season success, the top one might also be the most basic.

The team just has a great attitude.

Sure, winning can help. The Titans are off to a 6-0 start and have climbed up to the No. 3 spot in the Class 3A boys soccer rankings, but the feeling is more that the positive attitude has resulted in success rather than the other way around.

“I have been coaching since 2012 and I feel like this has been a season where our kids are competitors,” coach Michael Mikalakis said. “They never put their heads and they’re always looking to keep moving forward. I feel like that’s something you don’t always see.”

And it’s perhaps the best year to see it. The boys soccer season typically beings during the hot months of August and September and ends in November. Cold weather games aren’t out of the question, but the Titans have seen more adverse conditions than what they’re used to, especially to start the year.

“The first game we played was in Vail in a complete blizzard,” Mikalakis said. “The kids were thrown off because they’re used to 80 or 90-degree heat but this year is a little bit different. But they’re adapting well.”

In the first six games of the year, Coal Ridge has scored 28 goals on the season. Senior Jack Price and junior Eddie Salazar tie for the team lead with seven goals. That’s also tied for seventh in the state regardless of classification and fourth in all of 3A.

A part of that can very much be attributed to Price and a few of his teammates coming off a basketball season in which in the Titans advanced to the Sweet 16.

“I had that basketball season (ahead of time) where normally it would be me sitting on my couch, not doing anything,” Price said. “Us three basketball players came in ready to go and pumped up for the season.”

That playoff run also provided a spark not normally there at the beginning of the fall. Having just been through a postseason atmosphere and also seeing their early success, Price feels like Titans can give themselves a mental edge simply from being on the hardwood and beating Buena Vista before falling to Manitou Springs.

“It can propel us a ton because we get that competitive spirit and we don’t back down to any opponent,” Price said. “That Manitou Springs game, it didn’t end up the way that we wanted to but we were fired up and we competed.”

Now they’re looking at utilizing their skillsets on the soccer field to the best of their advantage. Scoring more than four goals per game, the Titans are able to use their offensive attack to let their defense play more freely.

“It’s a team effort,” Salazar said. “We get those opportunities and with the defense that we have, it’s pretty incredible. It all starts with them.”

Coal Ridge has surrendered just six goals all season, half of which came in a 4-3 win over Roaring Fork on March 25.

The Titans hope to continue that trend through the remaining games on their schedule, but they’ve figured out that everything rides on their competitive spirit and overall positive attitude.

“We need to be competitors,” Mikalakis said. “That’s our mantra this year. We need to compete every single game. We have the talent and we have the system. If we can keep our mentality the way that it has been going, we can see some really big success.”

2A/3A, 4A, 5A Co-Ed

(Dan Mohrmann/CHSAANow.com)

Familiar faces walked out of the World Arena with state championship trophies in hadn’t during the early session of the state spirit championships.

Coal Ridge claimed the 2A/3A Co-Ed Cheer championship for the third straight season. The Titans won the same category back in 2018 and also claimed the championship a year ago.

Bayfield finished as the runner-up in the category.

Thompson Valley also repeated as a state champion, claiming the 4A Co-Ed title. The Eagles finished with a score of 82.45, just over two points better than runner-up Falcon.

Castle View won the 5A title after after a sound performance that netted a score of 86.25.

Vista Ridge was the runner-up, jumping four spots from their finish last season.

2A, 3A Poms

(Dan Mohrmann/CHSAANow.com)

For the first time in nearly two decades, West Grand is leaving state spirit with championship in hand.

The Mustangs claimed the 2A Poms title, holding off Hotchkiss by just eight-hundredths of a point. The last time they claimed a championship at state spirit was in 2003 when they took the 2A Poms championship.

Sanford finished third in the event while Clear Creek finished fourth.

University kept their pattern of winning every other year intact as the Bulldogs claimed the 3A Poms title. They won the same event in 2016 and 2018. If the COVID-19 pandemic hadn’t pushed state back, this year’s title would’ve been the 2020 championship.

It’s the fifth overall title for the Bulldogs as they also claimed 3A Cheer in 2015 and 3A Poms in 2007.

SkyView Academy finished second, Aspen finished third and Grand Valley finished fourth.

4A and 5A Poms

(Dan Mohrmann/CHSAANow.com)

For the second time in the two-day event, Erie is taking home gold. The Tigers won the 4A Poms title to get their first championship is that specific discipline.

They have two 4A Cheer titles to their name and also won the 2A/3A Co-Ed Cheer championship back in 2007. They are the only team that has won more than one championship in 2021.

The score of 87.73 was more than a full point better than second-place Evergreen. Roosevelt finished third while Mullen took fourth.

Rock Canyon took the 5A title with a score of 91.15. It’s the first spirit title since 2016 for the Jaguars, who claimed the 5A Cheer championship. It’s the first Poms title for them since 2008 when they won it in 4A.

They fended off defending champion Cherry Creek who finished with 90.38 points. Grandview took third place and Ponderosa finished fourth.

Jazz

Add another one for Mountain Vista. The Golden Eagles put on a championship worth performance and earned the hardware to prove it. They advanced to the Jazz finals after the top preliminary score and rode that momentum to a Jazz state championship, the first since 2018.

This is the 11th overall spirit championship for Mountain Vista and the fourth Jazz title. They previously won the discipline in 2010, 2015 and 2018.

The Golden Eagles finished with a score of 86.58. Cherokee Trail finished second while Valor Christian took thrid.

Hip-Hop

(Dan Mohrmann/CHSAANow.com)

Broomfield’s performance was the final performance of the two-day state spirit championships. And the Eagles certainly saved their best for last.

After taking third a year ago, Broomfield once again claimed the Hip-Hop state title, capturing their second crown in three years. Their performance netted them a score of 90.80, seven-tenths of a point better than second-place Fruita Monument.

This is the ninth overall spirit championship for Broomfield and its third state title in the last four years.

The Wildcats’ runner-up finish is their second in as many years. Fossil Ridge finished third while Horizon took fourth.
