  • Football roundup: Long, Sircy lead Peetz to a big win over North Park

    Peetz North Park football
    (Caroline Lindahl/Peetz HS)

    Bryson Long, Logan Sircy and the Peetz Bulldogs kicked off their 2017 football season in style.

    Long, a junior, rushed for 178 yards and four touchdowns as his fourth-ranked team in 6-man beat North Park 63-13. He also threw 57-yard touchdown pass, and forced a fumble on defense.

    Logan Sircy also contributed in a big way for the Bulldogs with three total touchdowns, including two receiving scores, as well as 11 tackles and an interception on defense. He also blocked a field goal.

    The win was extra significant because North Park had upset No. 2 Fleming 31-25 in Zero Week.

    On Thursday, Peetz jumped out to a 30-0 lead at halftime, then put up 33 more points in the third quarter.

    Tre Fehringer also threw a touchdown pass for the Bulldogs, and Hunter White rushed for a score and intercepted a pass.

    Gage Travis had 11 tackles on defense, including two for a loss.

    5A: (10) Fairview 38, Horizon 14

    Sophomore Aidan Atkinson had quite the debut for the Knights. The new quarterback threw for 359 yards and three touchdowns as No. 10 Fairview beat Horizon 38-14.

    He most often found junior Bryce DesJardins, who caught nine passes for 159 yards and two touchdowns. Fellow junior Matt Greenwald also caught five passes for 111 yards and a score.

    “It just feels like the chemistry is already there (with Atkinson) and we think it’s going to continue to improve through the season with route-reading and whatnot,” DesJardins told BoCoPreps.com after the game.

    Senior Mariano Kemp also rushed for 143 yards and two touchdowns.

    3A/4A: (4) Silver Creek 14, Dakota Ridge 0

    Silver Creek held a slim 7-0 lead after three quarters, then got a sealing touchdown from Austin Knechtel late in the fourth quarter to secure a big win, according to BoCoPreps.com.

    “I’m proud of the offense persevering through the second half and our defense shut them out, so we’ll try to build on that piece,” Silver Creek coach Mike Apodaca told the outlet.

    Notables:

    • 5A No. 8 Columbine improved to 2-0 with a 38-13 win over Rocky Mountain.
    • Grandview and Chaparral were tied at 7 after the first quarter, but the 5A No. 6 Wolves pulled away for a 21-7 win.
    • Kennedy beat DPS rival George Washington for the first time since 2017 with a 42-7 win.
    • Skyview pulled away to beat Centaurus 33-14. It was just a 13-12 lead in the second quarter.
    • Clear Creek jumped out to a 22-0 lead at halftime and never looked back in beating Lake County 42-7 on a rainy night.

  • Football roundup: Kent Denver’s Scott Yates takes sole possession of state’s wins record

    Kent Denver Prospect Ridge Academy football
    (Cindy Betancourt/eStudioWest.com)

    For now, Kent Denver’s Scott Yates is sitting alone atop the state’s all-time football coaching wins record.

    With the Class 3A No. 1 Sun Devils’ 59-0 win over Prospect Ridge Academy, Yates grabbed win No. 316, putting him one game ahead of West Grand’s Chris Brown.

    The Mustangs are in action next week when they travel to Sanford to open their open.

    It was Brown who set the state’s all-time wins record last year with a 32-12 win over the same Sanford team in Week 1.

    He sat two games ahead of Yates, but a deep playoff run helped the Kent Denver coach match the wins total at the end of the 2016 season.

    6-Man: North Park 31, (2) Fleming 25

    North Park held a six-point lead with less than nine minutes to go in the fourth quarter, but the Fleming was able to tie it but.

    But it was all for naught.

    A North Park touchdown with three seconds remaining sealed the upset victory.

    With the win, North Park should climb into the new CHSAANow.com football rankings that will be released on Labor Day weekend.

    The 2016 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.

  • Football rankings: Polls feature four new No. 1 teams

    To the victors go the spoils.

    After wins last week, Denver South now sits atop the Class 4A CHSAANow.com football rankings while La Junta takes the top spot in the 2A poll.

    Discovery Canyon also jumps to No. 1 in the 3A poll despite previous No. 1 Fort Morgan not losing this week. Strasburg had a similar fortune this week, taking the No. 1 spot in 1A despite Paonia winning this weekend.

    The Rebels got a hard-fought win over Heritage on Saturday and with Chatfield’s loss to Columbine earlier in the week, they traded places this week in the rankings.

    Pine Creek (No. 4) and Ponderosa (No. 7) each jumped two spots from last week’s poll.

    At No. 10, Mesa Ridge is the only new team in the 4A rankings.

    In 2A, the Tigers ascend to No. 1 fresh off a win over Kent Denver, who held the top spot a week ago.

    After a win over Pueblo Central, The Classical Academy jumps to No. 2 and will host No. 1 La Junta on Friday.

    D’Evelyn (No. 5) and Manitou Springs (No. 6) each jumped two spots from a week ago. Florence comes in at No. 10 as the only new team in the 2A rankings.

    Pomona hangs on to the top spot in 5A thanks to a comeback win over Valor Christian on Friday night.

    Grandview made the biggest jump in the poll, ending up at No. 5 thanks to a big win over Cherry Creek.

    Doherty comes in at No. 10 and is the only newcomer to the 5A rankings.

    In 3A, the Discovery Canyon and Fort Morgan traded places at the top of the poll with the Thunder coming in as the new No. 1.

    Thanks to a huge win over Longmont, Mead arrives to the 3A poll as the only newcomer, taking the No. 9 spot this week.

    Despite Paonia receiving eight of 15 first-place votes, it’s Strasburg who lands at No. 1 in 1A. The Eagles fell only one spot to land at No. 2.

    Meeker made a two-spot jump this week, landing at No. 5.

    Peyton was the only new team to jump into the 1A poll, landing at No. 9.

    A 22-20 win over Norwood keeps Sargent in the top spot of the 8-man poll.

    The top seven teams overall from last week’s rankings held their position this week.

    At No. 9 and 10 respectively, Pikes Peak Christian and Soroco are the two new teams in the 8-man poll.

    Fleming hangs on to the No. 1 spot in 6-man with Kit Carson holding firm at No. 2.

    North Park jumped three spots to land at No. 7 this week.

    There is one newcomer in the 6-man poll with Peetz landing at No. 9.

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

  • Football rankings: Fort Morgan takes over at the top of 3A

    Fort Morgan is the new No. 1 team in 3A football. (Brandon Boles/Fort Morgan Times)

    There is a new top dog in the Class 3A CHSAANow.com football rankings.

    Following a loss to Discovery Canyon — which lands at No. 2 this week — Pueblo East fell out of the No. 1 spot and Fort Morgan took its place.

    No new teams made their way into the 3A rankings, but there was plenty of movement as Lewis-Palmer (No. 5), Palisade (No. 6) and Silver Creek (No. 7) all climbed two spots.

    The 1A rankings also saw a new team land in the No. 1 spot as Paonia now sits atop the poll. The Eagles topped Ridge View Academy to move to 3-0 and Buena Vista fell out of the top spot with a 16-8 loss to Platte Canyon.

    The Demons come in at No. 6 this week.

    Burlington is the only newcomer to the 1A poll, coming in at No. 10 this week.

    A 57-0 win over Fowler helped Sargent move into the top spot in the 8-man poll with former No. 1 Sedgwick County falling to No. 3.

    That was the only big change in 8-man as there were no newcomer to those rankings.

    In 5A, Pomona remains and No. 1 with Mullen still on its heels at No. 2.

    Columbine jumped one spot to No. 3 after beating Bear Creek, but the big jump went to No. 4 Eaglecrest. The Raptors jumped six spots after beating Grandview on Friday night.

    Only one new team jumped into the 5A rankings this week as Legend breaks in at No. 10.

    Chatfield holds a firm grip on the No. 1 spot in 4A, taking 14 of 17 first-place votes.

    With a win over Greeley Central on Saturday, Loveland jumped three spots to land at No. 3. Vista Ridge also climbed three spots after an impressive 24-22 win over Dakota Ridge.

    With a showdown looming with No. 9 Ponderosa, Rampart is new to the 4A rankings this week. The Rams round out the rankings at No. 10.

    Kent Denver holds on to the No. 1 ranking in 2A this week as La Junta makes the one-spot jump to No. 2. The Sun Devils and Tigers play each other on Friday night.

    The Classical Academy jumps two spots to land at No. 3, just two weeks ahead of their league-opener against La Junta.

    Manitou Springs jumps into the 2A rankings at No. 8. Through three games, the undefeated Mustangs have already matched their win total from a year ago.

    Fleming got eight of 12 first-place votes to hang on to the top spot in the 6-man poll.

    Cheyenne Wells made the big jump of the week, moving up two spots to land at No. 5.

    At No. 10, North Park is the only new team to the 6-man rankings.
