  • Boys soccer rankings: The Classical Academy on top of 4A

    The Classical Academy has taken over the top spot of the Class 4A CHSAANow.com soccer rankings. Broomfield and Kent Denver held on to their respective No. 1 positions in 5A and 3A.

    The Titans came into the season with more returning talent than any team in 4A and have had their sights set on a state championship since day one. It appears that an early-season loss to Cheyenne Mountain hasn’t fazed them and they are now regarded as the top team in the state.

    Also in 4A, Battle Mountain joined the rankings at No. 7 and Skyline made a jump from No. 5 to No. 2.

    In 5A, Monarch (No. 6) and Cherry Creek (No. 10) join the rankings this week. Fairview made an impress jump from No. 6 to No. 2 and are barking at the heels of their area rival, Broomfield, for the top spot.

    DSST-Stapleton and Fountain Valley are both back in the 3A top 10 after dropping out in recent weeks.

    KIPP, Liberty Common and Vail Mountain each jumped three spots to land at No. 2, No. 3 and No. 4, respectively.

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

    Complete rankings for each class are below.

    COLORADO SPRINGS — Longtime coach Bill Paulson meant the world to his golfers — both boys and girls — at Cheyenne Mountain High School.

    It was clear when the girls clinched their third-straight state championship in May that the about-to-be-retired coach was going to be sorely missed for the Indians.

    Paulson retired in May, but the world kept spinning. The Indians were without a golf coach and had to find someone to fill that void. Cheyenne Mountain athletic director Kris Roberts began searching for a coach who would embrace the Indians’ golf tradition, while putting his own stamp on the team.

    He found someone to do just that in John Carricato.

    Carricato spent years running youth sports for the Colorado Springs Parks and Recreation department. His impact on sports has had a ripple effect on generations of athletes in the Pikes Peak region.

    But that’s not why he was chosen to pick up where Paulson left off.

    “We were fortunate to have a great applicant pool,” Roberts said. “John was clearly the best one on all levels and for him to accept is really fortunate.”

    While Roberts did his duty in considering all applicants, Carricato had one more intangible on his side that none of the others did. He had the endorsement of Paulson himself.

    “Bill has made the transition really smooth,” Carricato said. “He’s mentoring me into the program. Bill came to me in the spring and said he wanted to endorse me for this program and that was an honor.”

    For Carricato, this job wasn’t about just about coaching a premiere program. When he was able to gather his team, he was thrilled to hear that they share his long-term vision for the Indians.

    He and his players want to establish a legacy and pass it down, much the same way Paulson did.

    Paulson will indirectly play a big part in that legacy. He has created the reputation of a team that will always be a threat to contend for a state title and built a team-oriented mentality with his players that continues to rear its head, even today.

    “When you start thinking about premiere state-wide programs for boys and girls, there’s not a better program,” Carricato said. “There’s that added commitment that (the players) have. They have their own motivation.”

    It will be weird to go into this season without Paulson for some of the upperclassmen. But the energy and attitude that Carricato has brought to the team is well-received.

    “It’s a different style of coaching, but I like it,” junior Aiden Detloaf said. “We more set practices, we work on drills more often. It helps with the freshmen and the sophomores compared to what I had coming in.”

    There may not have been a more defining image of what Paulson truly meant to his players than at the girls’ state championship tournament in May. When senior Kylee Sullivan sank her putt on the 18th hole, she broke down knowing that both Paulson’s and her career were over.

    As a result, players like senior Charley DeVries will have to go through their final year without the man who had mentored them early.

    “Personally, it’s a little disappointing,” DeVries said. “He really coached me through my entire game.”

    But the time to dwell is over. Just like any other team, the Indians are teeing-off their season and only looking to win. It’s now on Carricato to try and secure the first boys’ state golf championship since 2004.

    “(Carricato) brings the team a lot closer together,” junior Everett Dwyer said. “I think we’re going play well. If one person doesn’t play well we can’t dwell on it. The other three have to go out there and make shots.”

    LAKEWOOD — It was a perfect ending for nearly a perfect day for Grandview junior Nicole Lyubenko.

    The same day that Lyubenko received her Class 5A girls soccer state championship ring, the midfielder closed out the night with a rocket shot that found the back of the net during the second half of the 2015 All-State girls soccer game at Lakewood Memorial Field.

    Lyubenko was the Wolves’ leading goal scorer as a sophomore this past spring on the way at the 5A state title for Grandview. She closed the season Wednesday night on the victorious North squad that scored three goals in the span of 14 minutes in the second half to pull out a 3-1 victory.

    “Honestly it’s just still so surreal for me. It still hasn’t hit me. I still don’t feel like a state champion,” Lyubenko said. “We’ll go back in next season and try to get a second one.”

    Lyubenko’s goal in the 70th minute Wednesday gave the North a 3-0 cushion over the South in the game put on by the Colorado High School Soccer Coaches Association.

    “It was a perfect touch by Kristin (Barbour). I was really lucky,” said Lyubenko, who had a couple of scoring chances earlier in the game. “I just struck it and it went in.”

    After a scoreless opening half, Steamboat Springs senior Natalie Bohlmann buried a pair of goals in the 56th and 59th minutes to give the North a 2-0 lead.

    “It was awesome. It was a great experience,” Bohlmann said. “It was great to have fun with all these other girls.”

    The South was able to prevent the shutout when Pine Creek senior Reece Hummel scored on a penalty kick in the 71st minute to cut the lead to 3-1. However, the North’s scoring outburst in the second half was enough to get the victory.

    “We settled down a lot in the second half. We were all connected and knew each other a little more,” Lyubenko said. “It’s hard to play with players that you don’t play with all year long. We settled down and got the job done.”
