Back in January, the Legislative Council approved the recommendation of the CHSAA baseball committee to fast track the use of RPI as the system to determine the playoff fields.

Wednesday saw the results of that vote for the first time as district brackets for Class 3A through 5A were released. Unlike the Wild Card system used previously, the RPI format takes into account the overall strength of schedule for each team and combines it with their win/loss record to create the field of 32 teams.

Pine Creek came away with the top overall seed in 5A, and will host this weekend. Other host schools are Regis Jesuit, Lakewood, Heritage, Rock Canyon, Grandview, ThunderRidge and Mullen.

Rock Canyon, which won last year’s 5A championship, is the No. 5 overall seed and will play Bear Creek in their first game. If they advance they’ll see the winner of Dakota Ridge and Chaparral.

Three of the final four teams left in last year’s playoff field made it back to the tournament with Grandview landing at No. 6, Chatfield at No. 26. District play will begin this weekend with the state tournament starting next week.

Mountain View leads the way in 4A, taking the top overall spot in the class. They’ll host their district where they will play Roosevelt. The winner of that game will meet the winner of Palisade and The Classical Academy.

The other host schools in 4A are Canon City, Valor Christian, Windsor, Pueblo West, Fort Morgan, Denver North and Delta.

Two-time defending state champion Green Mountain did not make it inside the top 32 teams and did not qualify for district play.

Last year’s runner-up, Lewis-Palmer, drew the No. 26 seed and will head to District 6 and play host Fort Morgan. The potential of a showdown with league rival Palmer Ridge is there as the Bears play Longmont in that same district. Lewis-Palmer swept the season series against the Bears this year.

Of last years final four teams in the tournament, only Lewis-Palmer and Ponderosa (No. 29) qualified for districts this year.

Defending 3A champion Eaton held strong as the No. 1 team in that class all season and is the No. 1 seed coming into districts. The Reds will face Olathe in their first district game with the winner of that game playing the winner of No. 16 Lutheran and No. 17 The Academy.

University, St, Mary’s, Lamar, Faith Christian, La Junta, Valley and Kent Denver are the other host teams in 3A.

All four of last year’s final four teams in the tournament qualified for districts this year. Eaton and University are the top two teams in the brackets, Brush comes in at No. 9 and will play No. 24 Buena Vista in District 2 at Kent Denver and Sterling lands at No. 21 and will play No. 12 Colorado Academy in District 4 at Faith Christian.

Valor Christian’s hot start to the season has made the Eagles the new No. 1 team in the Class 4A CHSAANow.com girls soccer rankings.

They did get a little help from down the road as Cheyenne Mountain handed The Classical Academy its first loss, knocking the Titans out of the top spot.

Lewis-Palmer made up significant ground in the 4A polls as well, jumping from No. 9 to No. 2 and even receiving two first-place votes.

No new teams were added to this week’s 4A poll.

Grandview remains the No. 1 team in 5A. The Wolves went 1-0 last week and remain undefeated on the year.

Cherokee Trail and Fairview make up the two new faces to the 5A poll, coming in at No. 7 and No. 9 respectively.

Colorado Academy kept a grip on its position as the No. 1 team in 3A. In fact, the top five teams this week all held on to their places from the previous set of rankings.

Denver Science and Tech – Stapleton (No. 9) and St. Mary’s (No. 10) are the two new teams in the 3A poll.

Vail Mountain received every first-palce vote in the 2A rankings to hold on to the No. 1 spot. The 2A poll overall was unchanged from the previous set of rankings.

The rankings, voted upon by coaches and select media members, are the official polls of the Association. During the regular season, they are released each Monday.

Complete rankings for all classes are below.

AURORA — The Class 3A basketball brackets for both boys and girls were released on Sunday afternoon.

Pagosa Springs, the defending champion, got the No. 1 overall girls seed. Denver Science & Tech – Stapleton heads the boys field as the No. 1 seed.

Both the 3A fields will narrow to eight after next weekend. When they do, play will move to the Denver Coliseum for the Great 8 and beyond on March 10-12.

Pagosa is unbeaten (21-0) to this point, and spent a long portion of the regular season atop CHSAANow.com’s 3A rankings. Elsewhere, Sterling (21-1) is No. 2, Manitou Springs (21-1) is No. 3, Moffat County (19-3) is No. 4, and Lutheran (18-4) is No. 5.

The top eight seeds in 3A host their quadrant. Also hosting are No. 6 Eaton, No. 7 St. Mary’s, and No. 8 Bennett.

Those district brackets will also narrow to eight teams for a state tournament field, which will be announced next Sunday. The 2A tournaments are at CSU-Pueblo, and the 1A tournaments are at the Budweiser Events Center in Loveland.

Like 3A, those brackets will play their Great 8 and beyond on March 10-12.

DENVER — With the Class 3A soccer playoffs looming, every game is going to count and Wednesday’s contest between KIPP and Denver Science and Tech Stapleton, two teams ranked in this week’s CHSAANow.com boys soccer rankings, had major implications on the line.

And it was KIPP junior forward Jhovani Gonzalez lead his team to a 4-2 victory over DSST-Stapleton by scoring three of his team’s four goals.

What made the win more impressive was that the Tigers were without coach Uli Dahm. Assistant coach Garrett Schuck filled Dahm’s void and KIPP didn’t miss a beat.

“It’s easy to come in when you have a great head coach like Uli Dahm,” said Schuck. “He has implemented this system from the beginning, making it easy to step in his shoes when he is away.”

The Knights controlled the ball from the beginning and junior Victor Delgado almost scored early with attempt barely missing with the ball hitting the top of the goal post. Despite DSST-Stapleton controlling the ball, KIPP was able to put points on the board first. Gonzalez gained possession of the ball and with a powerful toward the center of the net, put his team up 1-0.

DSST-Stapleton sophomore forward Luca Bravo had multiple attempts to score in the first half, but came away empty handed. He had a nice shot up the middle that was blocked by Tigers goalie Julian Hernades.

Moments later he followed up with the same kick that was blocked once again by Hernades, however the ball reflected off his hands setting up Knights senior defender Soco Sandoval for close range goal tying the game at 1-1.

Before the half ended, Gonzalez was able to get the ball in traffic and maneuver his way through the defense with nice goal giving his team 2-1 lead before half.

Coach Schuck gave player of the game to Tigers junior defender Roger Hernandez, who had a great defensive game.

“I think we played good but there is room for improvement,” said Hernandez. “Winning every 50/50 ball, we’ve been working on that a lot. I think that’s what won the game.”

In the second half, KIPP came out more aggressive and controlled the ball. Gonzalez picked up where he left off before half with a nice crossover for an easy goal, putting his team up 3-1. Knights senior middle forward Fethi Elbeshir countered with a penalty kick goal, cutting the KIPP lead to score 3-2 with 17 minutes left in the game.

DSST-Stapleton picked up their intensity to try and erase the KIPP lead. Tigers senior Joe Barrios scored with a clutch kick from a distance putting the score at 4-2. KIPP was able to control the ball and kill time off the clock to end the game.

“I think we played with a lot of heart today,” said Schuck. “We came together as a team. We had a few mental mistakes that led to a few goals. Other than that I think we dominated the game. It was the best showing we had in a few weeks.”

DSST-Stapleton head coach Dave Dombrowski believes his team didn’t play their best Wednesday afternoon.

“They didn’t bring their ‘A’ game,” said Dombrowski. “We got out muscled and hustled by KIPP and they deserved to win. We have to keep playing strong and forget about today’s loss and bring it on Friday.”

The Knights will look to bounce back on Friday against Middle Park. Tigers will wait until next Wednesday to face Lake County.

The 2015 all-state girls soccer teams honor the best players in the sport as judged by the leagues and coaches. They are presented by CHSAANow.com, ColoradoPreps.com and MaxPreps.

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

Players and coaches of the year were also selected by a vote of the coaches.
