  • Football roundup: Horizon knocks off Legacy with late safety

    Horizon was stuffed on fourth down with less than three minutes to play, and it looked like Legacy might escape with a big win in Class 5A football. But then the Hawks got a game-changing, go-ahead safety and walked away with a 22-21 win on Friday night.

    The game was a wild one.

    Legacy jumped out 14-0 in the second quarter, but Horizon battled back to tie it at 14 in the third quarter.

    Legacy took the lead when quarterback Matt Lynch, a UCLA commit, threw a touchdown pass later in that quarter. Horizon answered with a Cade Verkler rushing score, but the extra point missed, making it a 21-20 Legacy lead in the fourth quarter.

    Late in the fourth quarter, Horizon had a 4th-and-goal from the 1-yard-line. The Hawks were stuffed. But two plays later, Horizon got the key safety. It was 22-21, and the Hawks would hold on to win.

    2A/1A: (3) Bayfield 35, (1) Paonia 0

    Bayfield ended Paonia’s 26-game winning streak in stunning fashion.

    It was 22-0 at halftime, and the lead only grew from there. Bayfield forced three turnovers in an outstanding defensive effort.

    “We had to be physical up front, and we had to stop them,” coach Gary Heide told the Colorado Preps Scoreboard Show. “The plan worked to perfection.”

    Paonia’s 26-game streak was the second-longest in the state.

    “I’m kind of a low-key, one-game-at-a-time, and, ‘No game is no more important than the other’ guy, but this morning, I just realized the opportunity that Bayfield had, along with getting a win,” Heide said. “A game like this, you end up gaining a lot of confidence.”

    Bayfield quarterback Kelton McCoy threw three touchdown passes for the traditionally run-based offense.

    “We don’t pass a whole lot, but when we do, we try to do it at optimal times. Tonight, it really worked out,” Heide said. “Kelton McCoy threw some really nice passes.”

    3A: (1) Pueblo East 47, Discovery Canyon 36

    Discovery Canyon nearly pulled off a major upset, but Pueblo East was able to pull out a win.

    “It was a fun night,” Pueblo East coach Lee Meisner told the Scoreboard Show. “We knew we were going to get everything they had. … We had a heck of a game.”

    This game featured 10 ties or lead changes, including a number in the final quarter. It also had a 99-yard kickoff return.

    Discovery Canyon led 28-27 going to the fourth. Pueblo East soon went ahead 33-28, and Discovery Canyon answered to retake the lead at 36-33.

    Then, with 2:45 to go, Pueblo East took the lead for good at 40-36. The Eagles added a late touchdown to ice the game.

    Said Meisner: “We just kept preaching to our kids: ‘We have to play four quarters of football. No matter what the score is, just at the end of it, do your job, and then worry about the score.’”

    5A: Doherty 24, Fruita Monument 21 (OT)

    Doherty jumped out to an 18-0 lead at halftime, but then Fruita Monument started to chip away.

    It was 18-13 after the third quarter, and then tied in the fourth after a safety and a field goal.

    In overtime, Fruita Monument kicked a field goal on its possession, and then Doherty’s Tequan Baker scored the winner on a 6-yard run:

    1A: Limon 26, (4) Burlington 0

    Limon pulled off the upset of its rival, and improved to 4-0 this season.

    “Our kids really stepped up tonight,” Limon coach Mike O’Dwyer told the Scoreboard Show. “I thought they played really well. By far, the best game we’ve played all year.”

    Of the shutout, O’Dwyer said, “Anytime you play Burlington, they’re so disciplined and so well-coached, you have to play assignment defense and everybody has to do their job and not worry about what everybody else is doing. You just have to take care of your job. I thought tonight, our assignment defense really played very, very well.”

    1A: (5) Cedaredge 40, (10) Center 13

    It was 14-13 at halftime, but Cedaredge pulled away to notch a huge top-10 win to move to 4-0.

    “They had some turnovers and we capitalized on those turnovers,” coach Brandon Milholland told the Scoreboard Show. “Another important piece that I realized late in the fourth quarter is we’re starting to get out of our own way and kind of believe in what we’ve going on.”

    Cedaredge pulled away to 25-13 after the third quarter, then put the game away in the fourth.

    8-man: (3) Norwood 38, (4) Sargent 28

    Norwood was clinging to a 16-12 lead at halftime, but pulled away in the third quarter with two quick scores.

    “We got a lucky bounce,” coach Brandon Alexander told the Scoreboard Show. “We scored quick, and turned the ball over, and scored again. Two scores early in the third quarter, that was really huge for us.

    “Sargent was a great team, they were very athletic and fast, so it was exactly what we had to have.”

  • Volleyball rankings: Chatfield takes over No. 1 spot in 5A

    For the second-straight week, there is a new team on top of the Class 5A volleyball rankings. Chatfield has taken over.

    The Chargers, now 8-0, went 2-0 last week with wins at Rocky Mountain and Green Mountain.

    Legend took over the top spot last week, then was swept by Lewis-Palmer, the top team in 4A, last week.

    With the loss to the Rangers, the Titans fell to No. 2 this week. Legend and Cherokee Trail each only fell one spot to second and third, respectively. The biggest jump in 5A came from Brighton. The Bulldogs went from unranked to No. 10, and have now raised to sixth.

    Newcomers to the 5A include Lakewood at ninth and Columbine at No. 10.

    The top five teams in 4A went unchanged and the overall poll itself remains relatively unscathed from last week. It did welcome two new teams in Berthoud at ninth and Holy Family at No. 10.

    St. Mary’s joins the 3A poll at ninth, thanks in part to a big win over Manitou Springs at the Bishop Machebeuf Tournament over the weekend. The Mustangs dropped to fifth as result to the loss against the Pirates, as well as a loss to Resurrection Christian. Defending champion Eaton remained the top team in 3A.

    Resurrection Christian continues to cruise this season and was a unanimous pick as the top team in 2A. They the only No. 1 team this week to receive every first place vote. The bottom of the 2A poll looks vastly different this week with the addition of the Colorado Springs School (eighth), West Grand (ninth) and Swink (No. 10).

    Idalia hangs on to their place atop the 1A rankings after an impressive 4-0 week. They’re joined in the top 10 by Nucla and Briggsdale.

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

    Complete rankings for all classes are below.

  • Legend takes over as No. 1 in 5A volleyball rankings

    Legend volleyball, No. 8 in the Class 5A preseason poll, has risen to the No. 1 spot after the first full week of action.

    The Titans, now 5-0, beat former No. 1 Cherokee Trail, then-No. 4 Regis Jesuit and Air Academy, at the time ranked No. 9 in 4A, in the past week.

    The schedule doesn’t get any easier. Legend has a date with 4A No. 1 Lewis-Palmer on Thursday.

    There was much more shakeup to the 5A poll, which is conducted by CHSAANow.com. Cherokee Trail remained very high, at No. 2, but there was a lot of change behind the Cougars.

    Chatfield moved up two spots to No. 3, Rock Canyon rocketed from unranked to No. 4, and Regis Jesuit moved into the top five.

    Cherry Creek is No. 6, Grandview is No. 7, and then three newcomers round out the ranking: No. 8 Castle View, No. 9 Mountain Vista and No. 10 Brighton.

    In the 4A ranking, Lewis-Palmer retained its grip on the top spot. That poll added No. 7 Longmont and No. 9 Windsor. Montrose also made a big jump in going from No. 7 to No. 4.

    The other No. 1 teams also stayed put: Eaton (3A), Resurrection Christian (2A) and Idalia (1A).

    Other new teams this week include Faith Christian (No. 10 in 3A), Rye (No. 8 in 2A) and the following in 1A: Sangre de Cristo (No. 8), La Veta (No. 9) and Norwood (No. 10).

    [dropcap]M[/dropcap]emories haven’t faded for the Castle View softball team. The Sabercats made school history a year ago, reaching the Class 5A state semifinals for the first time before losing to Fossil Ridge 2-1.

    This season Castle View will try to build on that success with a new coach Cory Williams and without graduated first-team all-state pitcher Savannah Heebner, who is now playing for the University of Houston.

    “I’m hoping we can keep the (winning) tradition going,” said Williams, about the Sabercats who played in the state tourney the past two years. “We need to certainly find some adequate pitching and we have a pretty good nucleus of girls coming back from last year and we should be able to compete.”

    Williams spent the last two seasons as an assistant coach for Castle View for his niece Caley Mitchell. Mitchell is now the head coach at Cherokee Trail.

    Castle View is ranked No. 8 in the preseason CHSAANow.com Class 5A poll.

    Williams is unsure who is his primary pitcher will be, but he does have a candidate list of Kayla Gau, Anna Vairma, and Ashley Maroney.

    “This is probably the one sport where pitching can win you games hands down,” Williams said. “We are excited about the season and the players we have and I’m looking forward to see what we can do.”

    Castle View opens the season Sept. 3 at Cherry Creek.

    Grandview, the defending state champion, was ranked No. 1 in the first preseason poll, followed by Fossil Ridge and Broomfield at No. 2 and No. 3. Williams also mentioned Brighton, preseason No. 5, as a darkhorse state title contender.

    In Class 4A, Valor Christian was ranked No. 1 in the poll and returns sophomore pitcher Alexandria Kilponen, the reigning player of the year. Kilponen powered Valor to the state title a year ago, beating Frederick 7-4 in the finals. Frederick is ranked No. 2, followed by perennial power Erie.

    The 3A poll is led by Strasburg in the preseason. Sterling is No. 2, while defending champion La Junta is No. 3.
