  • State skiing: Summit’s Snyder sisters win both girls races as Aspen captures team title

    (Erika Krainz)

    Summit took home a pair of individual titles in the girls alpine races, and Aspen repeated as team champion, as the state skiing championships came to a conclusion on Friday.

    Summit’s Ella Snyder, a freshman, won the morning’s giant slalom race, and her older sister, Olyvia Snyder, a junior, won the slalom in the afternoon. They helped pace an outstanding day for Summit that saw a number of standout individual performances.

    But Aspen’s girls kept pace. And, coupled, with the fast start to the team race that their nordic team gave them last week, the Skiers were able to repeat as state champions. It is Aspen’s 10th girls championship. The school also won the boys title on Thursday.

    (Erika Krainz)

    Ella Snyder won the GS with a combined time of 1:45.03. She finished the first run in 52.79, and the second in 52.24. Snyder’s teammate Jenna Sheldon was second (1:45.96), and Aspen’s Stella Sherlock (1:46.70) was third.

    Also finishing in the top five were Battle Mountain’s Robin Pavelich (1:47.63) and Aspen’s Cate Simpson (1:47.66).

    Aspen also had Maddy Hicks finish seventh (1:49.95), while Summit’s third scoring racer was Paige Petersen, who was 12th (1:51.47).

    In the slalom, Olyvia Snyder captured the event with her two-run time of 1:28.48. She finished her first run in 43.61, and her second in 44.87.

    Sheldon was also runner-up in the slalom, as she went 1:30.59, and Aspen’s Sherlock was also third in the event (1:34.96).

    Aspen’s Simpson was fourth (1:35.16), and Summit’s Camille Thompson was fifth (1:36.09).

    Peterson placed sixth as Summit’s third scoring race, in 1:37.13, Aspen also got points from Hicks, who was eighth in 1:38.10.

    As a team, Aspen’s alpine and nordic squads combined to score 670 points. Summit finished as runner-up with 644. Also in the top five were Middle Park (577 points), Vail Mountain (546), and Lake County (531).

  • No. 2 Green Mountain girls hoops begins playoff journey with win over Battle Mountain

    Green Mountain senior Courtney Hank (33) scored eight points in the final 2 and 1/2 minutes of the first half to extend the Rams’ lead to 39-11 at halftime over Battle Mountain. Green Mountain went on to win 55-32 in the opening round of the Class 4A state tournament. (Dennis Pleuss/Jeffco Athletics)

    LAKEWOOD — Green Mountain’s girls basketball knows how to deal with things being taken away from them.

    It was pretty clear Tuesday night in the opening round of the Class 4A state tournament that No. 31-seeded Battle Mountain wasn’t going to allow the Rams’ inside duo of senior Courtney Hank and junior Avery Oaster to have their way in the paint.

    “Great job by Battle Mountain to work hard and collapse on the inside and make us beat them from the outside,” Green Mountain coach Darren Pitzner said after the No. 1 Rams took a 55-32 first-round victory over the Huskies. “Luckily we have the kind of balance that can do that. They made us earn it. Congrats to Battle Mountain on a great season.”

    Green Mountain (15-0 record) continued it season thanks to some early 3-point shooting by junior Shea Murphy and sophomore Jayda Maves. The two combined for six 3-pointer in the opening half with both pouring in a dozen points by halftime.

    “We knew (Battle Mountain) was going to play a 1-3-1 zone defense,” said Maves, who finished with a game-high 15 points. “We were open and we take our shots when we are open.”

    Murphy came into Tuesday’s playoff game with just six 3-pointers on the season. She put in a little extra time working on her shooting from long range for the Rams’ playoff run.

    “I’ve built more confidence with my shot this season,” Murphy said. “I went and did some shooting on my own to get prepared for the playoffs so I could knock those down.”

    Hank dropped the hammer on Battle Mountain (8-6) to end the first quarter. Last year’s 4A Jeffco League MVP scored eight straight points in the final 2 and 1/2 minutes of the opening half to extend Green Mountain’s lead to 39-11 at halftime.

    “When we are more discipline in our possessions that is when you see those nice inside, outside, cutting and dynamic possessions,” Pitzner said. “When we are rushed we get impatient with our shots.”

    The Rams were able to work in some time for their bench in the second half. Green Mountain will have a quick turnaround to face No. 15 Thompson Valley in the round of 16 Thursday night at Green Mountain High School.

    “Thompson Valley is very quick getting to the basket,” said Pitzner of the Eagles that defeated Evergreen 42-27 on Tuesday night. “They are a tough match-up.”

    While Pitzner had his team zeroed in on Thompson Valley, the Rams can draw from their experience last year when Green Mountain advanced all the way to the 4A state semifinals.

    “After what we did last year and saw what it took, this year we are so excited and we know what is there,” Murphy said. “We are excited to do it.”

  • State skiing: Aspen’s Taiga Moore sweeps boys nordic races; Skiers also head team chases in girls and boys

    2021 state skiing nordic skate
    (David Cudd)

    BRECKENRIDGE — Aspen’s Taiga Moore won both boys nordic races as the state skiing championships opened competition on Saturday at Gold Run Nordic Center.

    The Skiers’ senior, who finished runner-up in both races last season, opened the day with a win of more than 30 seconds in the 5 km classic race in the morning, finishing in 14:11.0. Aspen’s Noah Wheeless (15:25.7, 8th) and Corbin Carpenter (15:38.7, 10th) also placed in the top-10 as the Skiers amassed 164 points in the event.

    Eagle Valley’s Ferguson St John placed second in the event, finishing in 14:49.0. Others in the top five included Steamboat Springs’ Sumner Cotton (14:50.5), Battle Mountain’s Sullivan Middaugh (15:06.4) and Lake County’s Jace Peters (15:10.5).

    In the afternoon’s 3 km skate race, Moore raced to a win in 7:21. St. John also placed second in that race, as he finished in 7:38. Wheeless was third (7:39), Evegreen’s Zach Footer (7:42) was fourth, and Carpenter (7:47) was fifth — giving Aspen three among the top five.

    The Skiers also had Christian Kelly place eighth (8:00), and Eske Roennau finished tenth (8:04), though a team’s top three finishers are the ones who account for team points. As it was, Aspen scored 174 team points in the skate.

    So after the nordic competition, Aspen leads the boys team race with 338 total points. Eagle Valley sits in second with 301, Middle Park and Vail Mountain are tied for third with 291, and Evergreen is fifth with 281.

    Aspen is the three-time defending boys team champion, and is seeking to become the first team to win four in a row since Summit won five in 1986-90.

    The Skiers also lead the girls team race with 333 points, thanks in large part to a 1-3-5 finish in the skate. In that race, Aspen’s Elsie Weiss defended her individual title from a year ago, winning in 8:29. Lake County’s Rose Horning placed second in 8:38, capping a wonderful day that saw her win the classic event.

    Aspen’s Eva McDonough placed third in the skate (8:55), Steamboat Springs’ Zoe Bennett-Manke (8:57) was fourth, and Vail Mountain’s Elliot Pribramsky (9:02) was fifth. Aspen’s Kylie Kenny rounded out Aspen’s team score with her seventh place finish, just behind Summit’s Tai-lee Smith.

    As mentioned, Lake County’s Horning won the classic race in the morning as she finished in 16:41.2. Lola Villafranco of Colorado Rocky Mountain School was runner-up in 17:05.5. Rounding out the top five were Izzy Glackin of Vail Mountain, Smith of Summit, and Weiss, the skate winner.

    Aspens girls put up an event-best 164 points in the classic, thanks to an eighth place finish from McDonough and ninth-place from Kylie Kenny, giving them 333 total team points after the nordic competition. Aspen’s girls are the defending champion, and also won in 2018.

    In the girls team race, Summit is second with 301 points, Lake County is third with 296, Middle Park is fourth with 286, and Vail Mountain is fifth with 261.

    The state skiing championships conclude next weekend with the alpine events at Loveland Ski Area on March 11 & 12.

  • Unexpected loss forced No. 3 Battle Mountain hockey to regain focus

    (Thomas Green)

    In some ways, Battle Mountain’s loss to Steamboat Springs on Feb. 19 was a blessing in disguise. According to coach Derek Byron, the Huskies weren’t exactly playing the high-level hockey that he had seen early in the season.

    When the Sailors came away with a 4-2 win, it forced his players to take a long look at themselves and decide what kind of team they wanted to be the rest the season. They decided they want to finish the year as the No. 1 team in the state, the same way the coaches tagged them as the top team heading into the season.

    “Up until the point of that loss, we had been on a slow decline,” coach Derek Byron said. “We were complacent, staying No. 1 but not really playing like a No. 1 team, in my opinion. We lost and that next day we started playing the way we’re supposed to play.”

    A big part of that is the aggressive nature of the way the Class 4A No. 3 Huskies play the game. They place a huge emphasis on puck control in order to create as many scoring chances as possible. It’s paying off as forward Kyle Parliament is among the state leaders in total points and power play goals.

    If the Huskies find themselves with a man advantage, happy to pounce on every opportunity he gets to put the puck in the net.

    “Our power play just gives us a lot of great (scoring) opportunities,” Parliament said. “We’re able to set up nicely and take advantage when they’re a man down.”

    (Thomas Green)

    It helps that in front of their own net is a brick wall of a goalie in Logan Gremmer. He’s posting a save rate of 92 percent and faces more than 25 shots per game. And he savors every opportunity to turn the puck away.

    Like a true net minder, he took the loss to Steamboat very personally, feeling he could have done more to help his team.

    “It was tough,” he said. “We all kind of felt defeated. Our next game against Aspen turned us around. We knew what we needed to do to get the win.”

    In that 7-1 win over Aspen, Gremmer turned away all 14 shots he faced before getting pulled as the Huskies held a comfortable lead. He’ll be a huge piece of what the Huskies hope will be a championship run over the course of the next three weeks.

    “Logan’s a top goalie in Colorado,” Byron said. “He’s very good. He’s kept us in games when we aren’t playing well this year and he’s shown up to every game and been ready to go. He’s a lights out goaltender.”

    Battle Mountain currently sits one point behind Crested Butte in the 4A Mountain League. They have some business against Aspen and Summit the next few days, but will end their regular season with a three-game series against Crested Butte.

    That series will be crucial as the league champion is guaranteed a playoff spot. There is one at-large spot available, but the Huskies don’t want to leave anything to chance. They have to play their final games as if they are the best team in the state and they know that over the course of the next week, they’re going to get everyone’s best shot.

    “Teams are gunning for us,” Gremmer said. “They’ve all wanted to take our No. 1 spot from us.”

  • Gabriela Cabellero sets Battle Mountain girls basketball record with 41-point game

    (Photo courtesy of Jim Schuppler)

    When the shots are falling, they can fall often. And that was the case for Battle Mountain’s Gabriela Cabellero in the Huskies 72-34 win over Summit on Thursday.

    Cabellero went off for 41 points, a Battle Mountain girls basketball record for sure, and after conferring with boys coach Phil Tronsrue, girls coach Jim Schuppler believes that it is an overall basketball record for the school.

    She even gave the state’s single-game 3-point record a scare as she knocked down 10 triples, just two shy of the 12 that Alamosa’s Emily Lavier set just last season.

    “Once Gabi started seeing the shots fall, it was over,” Shuppler said.

    Overall, Cabellero shot 70 percent from the floor and went 10-for-15 from long range. It wasn’t just that she took a lot of shots to chase points, it’s that the shots she took were finding the bottom of the net at an efficient rate.

    As the Huskies (7-3 overall, 6-2 4A Western Slope) inch closer to the playoffs, it’s the kind of performance that can build momentum for the postseason.

    “It invites confidence from everybody,” Schuppler said. “When you see the ball going through, you can do no wrong. We kept playing better through the game.”
