The 2017-18 all-state skiing teams are presented by CHSAANow.com, ColoradoPreps.com and MaxPreps.

These teams were created based upon results at the state meet. Skiers of the year were selected based upon the number of team points they produced during the meet. Coaches of the year are voted upon by their peers prior at the state meet.

Luke Bailey and Alex Cregan each won the Giant Slalom events during the state skiing championships at Ski Cooper on Thursday. They are the first-ever individual champions from Platte Canyon. The school had never placed an individual higher than third.

Bailey won the boys event with a two-run total of 2:09:09. Vail Mountain’s Michael Resnick was second (2:10.02), and Evergreen’s Hayden Holtrop was third (2:10.97). Bailey had the top time in each run, improving his first-run time from 1:05.13 to 1:03.96 in his second.

Bailey finished seventh last season in the GS during the state championships.

Evergreen led the team score in the alpine event, finishing with 163 points. Aspen was second with 162, and Battle Mountain (151) was third.

Cregan captured the girls event by finishing her two runs in 2:15.44. Aspen’s Devan McSwain was second (2:15.90), and her teammate Levyn Thomas was third in 2:16.11.

Cregan had never finished higher than fifth this season in the GS, and was 12th at state last season.

Aspen had the most team points from the Giant Slalom with 167, Evergreen had 141, and Durango was third with 137.

It was Wolfe’s first state title. He finished second in the Classic last season, and was third in the Skate. He also placed third in the Classic in 2016. This season’s Nordic Skate race is on Friday afternoon.

Olson and Barsness paced Aspen as the Skiers jumped out to the lead in the team race. Combined with an 11th-place finish from Noah Wheeless, Aspen finished with an event-best 167 points. Summit (162) was second as a team, paced by Peter Haynes’ fourth-place finish.

Aspen’s Chelsea Moore won the girls Classic event, finishing in 19:23. Kate Oldham of Colorado Rocky Mountain placed second (19:45), and Noelle Resignolo of Summit (20:26) was third.

Moore had placed third in last year’s Classic, and was fourth in the Skate. In 2016, she was 12th in the Classic.

Aspen and Vail Mountain tied for the lead in the Classic as a team, both earning 163 points. Emma and Molly Blaksee finished fifth and sixth for Vail Mountain, while Aspen also had Lizzy Barsness place eighth.

In terms of the overall team race, Aspen heads both the boys and the girls events.

The Skiers are on top of the boys event with 329 points. Battle Mountain sits in second with 296. Vail Mountain, the defending champion, is third (295), Steamboat Springs (284) is fourth, and Middle Park (281) is fifth.

The state’s skiing schedule is scheduled to get underway on Friday, but a lack of snow at the mountain has caused one of the two events to be postponed.

Seven teams were slated to compete in the giant slalom at Ski Cooper. A lack of accumulated snow on the mountain, combined with a forecast of high winds and dry conditions through the week, have caused it to cancelled. The event will be moved to a new location the week prior to the state championships.

Lake County, Middle Park, Aspen, Clear Creek, Nederland, Platte Canyon and Summit were scheduled to race at Ski Cooper on Friday.

The giant slalom event scheduled to be held at Beaver Creek on Friday remains on as scheduled. Teams competing include Battle Mountain, Colorado Rocky Mountain, Durango, Evergreen, Eagle Valley, Vail Mountain and Steamboat Springs.

The 2017 all-state football teams are presented by CHSAANow.com, ColoradoPreps.com and MaxPreps.

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

Players were placed onto the first-team, second-team and honorable mention based upon the number of votes they received. In 5A-1A, spots were reserved for linemen and one kicker/punter, while 8-man reserved spots for linemen.

CHSAA does not determine who makes or doesn’t make the team; they are created entirely from the results of the coaches’ vote.
