On September 17th, 1993, Arapahoe High School in Centennial, Colorado, and the Arapaho Nation from the Wind River Indian Reservation in Wyoming began a relationship that promoted awareness to the co-existence of two very diverse cultures. The “Arapahoe Warrior” signifies a common ground shared between Arapahoe High School and the Arapaho Tribe. By working together within the boundaries of respect to our cultures, we have set precedence in our communities providing a positive solution for our future in the midst of mascot controversy.
The “Arapahoe Warrior” and the history of the Arapaho Tribal Nation are deeply embedded in Colorado. The Arapaho Nation‘s survival and plight is recognized through the endorsement of the ”Arapahoe Warrior”. The original version of the “Arapahoe Warrior” logo is the design of Wilbur Antelope, a Northern Arapaho Artist. For the relationship to continue it must be nurtured by everyone involved, especially the adults. The future facing our young people is determined by today‘s behaviors, actions, and attitudes displayed by adults. Cooperative efforts are not always easy, but as adults we know “nothing of value is ever earned easily.”
THE ARAPAHOE HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL BOOSTER CLUB
ENCOURAGES GREAT SPORTSMANSHIP & PARTICIPATION BY EVERY MEMBER IN THE SPIRIT OF THE TRUE ARAPAHO WARRIOR!
In 1963 Arapahoe High School was an unfinished building. Baseball fielded its first team in 1964, even while students were still housed at Newton Junior High. Its first class would not graduate until 1965, and yet it was a start of a tradition. Our Warrior Mascot symbolizes the brave, conquering, and inspirational spirit that we hope baseball reflects. Available records indicate that the first head coach was Phillip Zamora. Throughout all the years since 1964 there have been many changes; in players, coaches and of course society, but the game still remains. Players and fans come together in emerald cathedrals and renew its rituals; the quiet air of baseball, batting and infield practice, pitchers warming up in the bullpens, coaches exchanging lineups, and finally the Warriors take the field and the batter walks to the plate…. In those moments we can recapture the purity of wondering whether something good can happen and then proving that it can. In 2017 Head Coach James Dollaghan and his players take their place in the splendid tradition of Arapahoe Baseball. Seek the TRUTH of baseball. Find it and it is yours for a lifetime!
Hello and thank you for your support of Arapahoe Baseball.
Arapahoe H.S. has a deep tradition dating back to 1964. It is a tradition I am proud to continue and to uphold as the Coach of this prestigious program. Backed by a tremendous administration, led by our Principal Mrs. Natalie Pramenko and a veteran Athletic Director, Mr. Pat McCabe, as well as the dedicated teachers inside the classroom, the unwavering support of parents and the countless hours they provide volunteering for the program, the generous contribution of sponsors and the deeply vested involvement of the community, as well the strongest alumni group in the state, Arapahoe Baseball's future looks bright.
"We work hard, we play hard and we keep the game fun" has been my coaching philosophy since I began coaching in 1992. I truly believe that in order for kids to compete for you, they have to love coming to the yard. That's not always as easy as it sounds because there is a fine line between having fun and competing....and losing is never fun. Our student/athletes will strive to understand that line. It first starts in the classroom where they are held to a higher standard. Grades are of the utmost importance as an Arapahoe Warrior, because that is why they are here. Our student/athletes will work to model the proper behavior and set the example for other students in the classroom.
Understanding that philosophy on the field requires us to take the approach of "no one can out hustle us!" Being an Arapahoe Warrior and having the privilege to wear the A, is something that is not taken lightly. Each practice is structured to meet the demands of today's athlete, stressing the importance of handling pressure situations but also having to deal with the adversity of failure. This is a program which focuses on doing the little things well; understanding and developing a high baseball IQ, through rigorous spring and summer schedules, working hard to develop a work ethic that is second to none and maintaining a top notch facility that visitors envy. "Pitch by pitch, out by out and inning by inning", will create the result we're seeking.
Sincerely,
Coach DollaghanWelcome to the Spring 2017 Arapahoe High School Baseball season! What a transitional year it has been!
We want to welcome our new coach, Jim Dollaghan, as well as all the assistant coaches! Jim has built a great staff and we look forward to a great season! It is with great pride that we introduce to you the players and coaches for our 2017 campaign.
Our four teams are comprised of 63 of the best baseball players at AHS and we all look forward to a productive and successful season.
We would like to take a moment to thank all of our volunteers and supporters. Our organization cannot run and be as successful as we have been without all of these people. We would like to personally thank all of you for your time, effort and financial support! It is all greatly appreciated by the entire Arapahoe High School community.
So please, enjoy our 2017 Spring season and Go Warriors!

Coach Dollaghan is a Colorado native, born the youngest of 7 kids, 5 sisters and 1 brother. His father Art, who passed away in 2013, was a well-known and respected Parochial league pitcher here in Denver. His Mother, Nancy is living in Broomfield and is looking forward to seeing the Warriors play. She is an avid Rockies fan and is usually planning a spring break trip to Arizona to take in a couple of games.
Jim married the love of his life Diana, also a teacher, in July of 2002. They have 2 kids, Addison soon to be 13 who attends Powell Middle School, and Matthew who is 10 and is currently at Franklin Elementary. Both kids are involved in extra-curricular activities. Both are strong students who enjoy going to school and can't wait to get to Arapahoe.
Coach Dollaghan played basketball for 1 year and baseball for 3 years at Colorado Mesa University (formerly Mesa State) from 1986-1991. He was cut from the baseball program his first 2 years but eventually made the program his 3rd year in which he was red-shirted. He primarily played the outfield and played every position on the field except for short stop and catcher at one point of his career.
In the summer of 1992, coach traveled to Cody, Wyoming and accepted his first coaching job as the Legion B coach. Coach Dollaghan found his passion to coach in Cody. After applying for the head coaching position at his high school alma mater, Northglenn, he was not selected but accepted the JV coaching job, which began his coaching career in Colorado. In 1994, he accepted the head coaching position at Green Mountain H.S. in Lakewood and was there for 4 seasons. The years following, he was an assistant at Thornton as well as Legacy High Schools.
After stepping away from coaching to focus on Dollaghan Construction LLC., he eventually was reunited with his college pitching coach Joe White, the head coach at ThunderRidge H.S and was his JV coach for 4 seasons. He stepped away from baseball in 2009 to accept the head softball position at ThunderRidge which he led for 7 years but eventually his love for baseball was too strong.
Coach Dollaghan is very proud to have this opportunity to be the head coach of such a wonderful school with a storied tradition.
Coach White is a proud Colorado native, and Arapahoe alumni. He spent time playing in college at Neosho CC, Arapahoe CC, and Northern Colorado while studying Special Education. Arm injuries deeply hampered, and then ultimately ended his playing career. At that point he started coaching. He started coaching legion ball at Arapahoe when he was 21. Since then most of his 15 years coaching have been at ThunderRidge HS, with a 3 year stint at Littleton HS included in there. Coach White has been a varsity pitching coach for 7 now going on 8 years. His favorite thing about coaching is developing players, especially ones that have a desire to play at the next level. He is a very proud father of his 5 year old son Joshua. In his free time he enjoy splaying with his son, watching sports, and studying the game of baseball. Go Warriors!
