  • All-state football teams for the 2017 season

    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.

  • Football roundup: No. 5 Roosevelt gets a big win over No. 8 Berthoud in 3A

    (@Spartans_BHS/Twitter)

    Roosevelt football beat Berthoud on Friday night in a key Class 3A matchup.

    For starters, it was a top-10 win, with the No. 5 Roughriders topping the No. 8 Spartans. Second, it was a win in the Class 3A Tri-Valley League, which is probably the best league in the state regardless of classification. Third, Roosevelt is now 5-2.

    But most importantly: It helped the Roughriders move up in the 3A RPI standings from No. 13 to No. 8.

    Roosevelt rallied from down 12-7 to take a 15-12 lead at halftime, and led 22-12 after three quarters.

    2A: (6) Sterling 56, Fort Lupton 28

    Sterling quarterback Bodie Hume threw six touchdowns in the first half of Sterling’s 56-28 win over Fort Lupton. That ties the state record.

    Hume finished with seven touchdowns; he only played one series in the second half.

    The six touchdowns in a half are now tied for the most in state history. Hume is the seventh player to do that. His seven touchdown passes are tied for the fifth-most in state history.

    4A: (10) Skyline 70, Greeley Central 44

    Skyline junior Jeremy Hollingsworth rushed for six touchdowns and more than 350 yards in a wild win over Greeley Central. He now has scored 26 touchdowns this season.

    The Falcons are 6-1 this season.

    3A: Fort Morgan 17, (6) Silver Creek 7

    Fort Morgan not only pulled off the upset, but moved to 2-0 in the Northern League. Both conference wins followed a three-game losing streak.

    “We changed it up this week,” Mustangs coach Harrison Chisum told the Colorado Preps Scoreboard Show. “We had a lot of competitions and a lot more fun in practice, and it kind of helped with our energy level.”

    Donovan Moya had an interception return for a score to help Fort Morgan win on Friday.

    “He’s a competitor, and that was a huge pick-six to start the second half,” Chisum said.

    Both teams are now 4-3 this season.

    6-man: (1) Stratton/Liberty 63, (3) Otis 6

    The Knighted Eagles are 7-0 after this latest win.

    “We’re really excited about the win, an really excited about the way we’ve been playing,” coach Toby Kechter told the Scoreboard Show.

    Kechter praised his line.

    “The kids just blocked their hearts out,” he said. “The effort’s just been great.”
