Online students dance night away — just like anyone else Four online schools host ‘virtual’ prom for students from throughout metro Denver

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A common concern about online schools is whether students get the same opportunities to socialize as their peers in traditional ones.

But they showed they can have just as much fun when students from four online schools recently enjoyed the time-tested tradition of prom.

“It’s something that all high school students look forward to, whether they attend a traditional school or a virtual school,” Teri Cady, head of school at Destinations Career Academy of Colorado, said in an email. “They make a night of it just like any other high school student.”

More than 150 students from areas as diverse as Westminster, Elbert County, Castle Rock, Colorado Springs and Northglenn all attended the “Black and Gold Masquerade,” hosted May 5 by Colorado Preparatory Academy, Destinations Career Academy, Pikes Peak Online School and Colorado Digital Board of Cooperative Education Services

Caleb Ragan, 15, gets his corsage pinned down by his date Miah, 16, who withheld her last name for privacy. The couple are both students at Pikes Peak Online School and met online.

Yadira Velez, 16 , and Keiren Brown, 17, share a dance at the “Black and Gold Masquerade,” a prom for online high school students from across the state. Brown and Velez met at last year’s prom and stayed in touch via Facebook throughout the year.

at the Riverwalk Clubhouse in Littleton.

Some students were attending their first dance, but at least two had met before the event.

Yadira Velez, 16, of Colorado Springs met her date, Keiren Brown, 17, of Green Valley Ranch, at last year’s event. They connected

on Facebook afterward and see each other in person about once a month.

“I asked my friend if I should go up to him and say ‘hi,’” Velez said in a text after the prom. “I felt like I was never going to see him again, so I went for it… You don’t even know how much I’ve been waiting for prom this year.”

Patrick Borchert, 16, a student at Destinations Career Academy, gets the party started at the online students’ prom on May 5. “I thought I’d be the shy guy, but I was the first one on the dance floor,” he said.

Q&A with Matt Sturgeon Centennial’s new city manager

BY STEPHANIE MASON SMASON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Matt Sturgeon was not looking for a new job: He liked being city manager of Rifle, a town of roughly 9,500 west of Glenwood Springs.

But the ad for the Centennial city manager position piqued his interest.

And June 19, after beating out two other finalists, Sturgeon, 46, will take over the helm of the city of 110,000 people.

Sourrounded by Littleton, Greenwood Village, Parker and Lone Tree, among other communities, Centennial spreads across 30 square miles and is defined by its thriving business community and family-oriented atmosphere.

The contract between Sturgeon and the city is currently being negotiated.

Sturgeon succeeds John Danielson, who resigned in October. Elisha Thomas, Centennial’s deputy city manager, stepped into the job in the interim.

Sturgeon’s contract was approved by a 9-0 vote of city council on May 15 and signed by Sturgeon the next day.

He will be paid a base annual salary of $200,000.

Sturgeon started in Rifle in 2002 as planning director. He later became assistant city manager and, in 2013,

‘Centennial’s approach to governance is different to what other communities do and it works very well.’

Matt Sturgeon, Centennial city manager city manager. Before Rifle, he was the senior planner in Pueblo County.

He received a bachelor’s degree in political science from the University of California Irvine in 1992 and a master’s degree in urban and regional Planning from California Polytechnic State University-San Luis in 1995.

“The council is excited to be entering the next stage of success for our city,” Centennial Mayor Cathy Noon said May 5 when announcing the choice of Sturgeon. “We are confident we have the right person at the helm for our continuing success.”

Sturgeon spoke on the phone from Rifle with Colorado Community Media reporter Stephanie Mason to answer a few questions.

Why did you decide to apply for the city manager position?

This had been a high-performing city since it was created. I was drawn to the high-functioning city council, the incredible staff and the great community. It is a challenge that I have been waiting to discover.

The commitment of efficiency and finding the best way to tackle a problem is what drew me in general. For a long time, (Centennial) has been doing a great job advancing their public works department and their police services. Centennial’s approach to governance is different to what other communities do and it works very well.

Rifle has a really great city council and a great staff. I’ve really appreciated my 15 years here. I was not looking

for a different job, but I ran into the Centennial job advertisement several times. I decided to look more into the city… and discovered that it was something that would, in fact, be a good opportunity for me.

With Rifle’s population of nearly 10,000 and Centennial’s population of 110,000, how will you manage a city 11 times the size of the city your currently manage?

I think it is just more dollars, more lanes and miles of roadway, more snowplowing miles, a larger police protection presence — but everything is scalable.

I love cities and I am not concerned about being able to adapt. Local governments all have to follow the same format. It is different in scope, but I am not really concerned.

What projects in Centennial do you most look forward to managing?

The project with FiberWorks is a huge project I am excited about. I am excited to work with the innovation team and their Bloomberg grant.

There are lots of growth projects that are planned. I am excited for all the projects — there is just so much going on in all levels.

I have been doing local government for 22 years at the county and city level.

I have a county perspective that will help with the relationship at Arapahoe SEE MANAGER, P6

United through mail, generations apart Second-graders meet their senior citizen pen pals after a year of sending letters

BY STEPHANIE MASON SMASON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Sil Stenman, 80, reached across the table to hold the hand of her pen pal, Abby Brown, 9, as Brown read Stenman her favorite book, “On Top of Spaghetti.”

This was the first time they had met after exchanging letters since August.

“I am happy,” Brown said. “I am so excited to meet you, the best pen pal.”

Second-graders from Cherry Hills Christian School in Highlands Ranch met their senior-citizen pen pals for the first time on April 28 at the Holly Creek Retirement Community in Centennial.

Stenman had knit a small teddy bear named “Chocolate” for Brown.

The day the two met, it was Brown’s ninth birthday and Stenman sang her “Happy Birthday.”

Phoebe Alfke, 85, said she hung letters from her pen pal, Kayla Boerman, on her fridge. The two had never seen photos of each other but created a

strong friendship before finally meeting.

“It is kind of like a mystery,” Alfke said. “You are writing back and forth and wondering what she looks like. I just think she is a little cutie.”

“I think you are, too,” Boerman said.

Over the course of the school year, the pen pals exchanged five letters.

“We are excited,” said Alice Garrett, 76, hugging her pen pal, Abigail Wood.

“Yeah,” said Wood, 8, while jumping up and down. “I am happy, excited and more happy.”

Each of the second-grade students brought a favorite book to read to their pen pals. Alice Hulings, 91, drug

her fingers beneath the words that her pen pal, Katie Boyes, 7, sitting on Hulings’ lap, focused on reading aloud.

“You are an excellent reader,” Hulings said.

Kitty Dobbs, a volunteer coordinator at the Holly Creek Retirement Community, said the children need the one-on-one attention that the senior citizens have time to give. The senior residents, many of whom were teachers, she said, love interacting with the students.

“The residents really look forward to it,” Dobbs said. “These residents are young at heart. This really brings out their inner child.”

Bill increases penalties for texting and driving

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A bill that increases penalties for drivers convicted of distracted driving passed the full Legislature on April 24 and is expected to be signed into law by Gov. John Hickenlooper at the end of May. Under the legislation, a law enforcement officer must see a driver using a

phone for texting, or doing any other form of manual data entry, while operating a motor vehicle. A conviction for a first offense would be a Class 2 misdemeanor resulting in a fine of $300 and four points on the driver’s license.

Subsequent offenses would incur the same fine and points assessed.

Drivers convicted of causing an accident resulting in death or injury while texting would face Class 1 misdemean-

or charges, with fines ranging from $300 to $1,000 and a possible sentence of 10 days to one year in prison.

“It’s a start to make Colorado roads safer in the long run,” said Susan Dane, co-founder of Colorado Organized for Responsible Driving. “But our work is not done.”

Dane and other CORD members founded the group after friends Jacquie and Brian Lehner were killed in an accident on State Route 83 north of Franktown in 2016. The driver admitted to drinking and smoking marijuana before the accident, as well as checking

a text message, just before she drifted into oncoming traffic and caused the accident.

CORD had representatives at every committee hearing throughout the course of the bill’s passage, Dane said.

The next step for the group will be to work with schools and driver’s education programs to reach young drivers before texting becomes part of their driving routine.

“I don’t know what it’s going to take to get people to shake the habit,” Dane said. “But we’re going to keep working at it.”

I think Centennial has been doing a great job, and it is my place to use what I have to improve what they are already doing.

County. I have 15 years municipal experience, doing a lot of projects with state agencies and special district projects, economic development, and my background is in planning. My breadth of background will go well with Centennial.

I think my job is to come in and see how the organization functions and adapt my skills to that. I think one of my greatest strengths is being able to adapt to conditions. I want to come in and evaluate what different organizations are doing and see which of my skill sets can help to make it better.

I have a wife of 23 years, Kelly. I have a son, Carter, who is a going to be a junior. He is a basketball player, so we spend a lot of time following his basketball events. My daughter, McKenna, is going to her first year at University of Colorado-Boulder next year. She likes to travel.

My wife and I like to get out and hike, take in scenery and travel.

We are right now searching for a Centennial high school for Carter and a house for us to move into. We are all excited to make the move to Centennial.

Heritage students, parents try new way of tackling hunger Little Free Pantries crowdsource food donations

BY KYLE HARDING KHARDING@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Heritage High School students and parents gather in the rain to dedicate a Little Fee Pantry in Littleton on May 8.

KYLE HARDING

You’ve probably heard of a Little Free Library, but a Little Free Pantry may be a foreign concept.

Karen Kaiser and Monika Nash of Littleton came across the idea while thinking of things their daughters, both students at Heritage High School, could do for community service.

“It was one of those special interest stories that pop into your feed and something struck,” said Kaiser, describing how she learned about Little Free Pantries on Facebook.

Along with a group of nine Heritage

A pile of dirt and mulch, or ingredients for disaster? A simple decision on where you store your landscaping material could have a big impact on water quality. Landscaping materials left in the street travel with rain or sprinkler water directly into the storm drain.

students, Kaiser and Nash set about researching where to put a Little Free Pantry in Littleton, settling on a spot outside Doctors Care at Littleton Boulevard and Fox Street.

The Little Free Pantry Project began last May in Fayetteville, Arkansas.

The pantries are just a small wooden box on a post, similar to the Little Free Libraries they are modeled after. But instead of books, they are stocked with non-perishable foods, baby formula, diapers or school supplies.

Just like the libraries, anybody can put something in — and anybody can take something out.

“I think it’s a really great idea, because some people may be too embarrassed or don’t want to ask for help,” said Kaiser’s daughter, Alex.

Parents should ‘speak now’ about drugs and alcohol Statewide campaign urges parents to have those conversations with children

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When Jay Martin was 13 years old and living in Nebraska, he answered the family phone to hear a state trooper explain his brother had been in a wreck and he needed to speak with Martin’s parents.

Martin’s 19-year-old brother was killed in a car accident in which he was driving drunk. The experience hurt not only his family, Martin said, but also others who were involved in his brother’s crash.

Today, Martin is a deputy with the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office working with the department’s Y.E.S.S. program, in which officers visit local schools and teach about such topics as online safety, relationship safety and substance use.

But Martin isn’t the only one trying to teach kids the dos and don’ts of alcohol and drug use.

A campaign run by the Colorado Department of Human Services Office of Behavioral Health called “Speak Now Colorado” is targeted at helping parents have

those difficult conversations with kids, especially around prom and graduation seasons.

On the Speak Now website, speaknowcolorado.org, parents can: • Learn how to spot risky behavior.

• Explore hypothetical scenarios to help them prepare for real-life situations involving kids and substances.

• Take a quiz to test their knowledge of drug and alcohol use.

• Get tips for starting and continuing conversations with their children about drugs and alcohol.

Start conversations early Rob Valuck, a professor of pharmacy at the University of Colorado, has worked in substance abuse prevention for nearly 25 years. He says the main reason for parents to keep their kids away from alcohol and drugs, including misuse of prescription drugs, is to protect their health.

“We really think it’s a critical time in people’s lives — behaviorally and emotionally and psychologically, but also biologically,” he said of adolescence. “There’s a lot of changes going on in people’s bodies up until about age 25.”

Mainly, he said, a person’s brain is still developing during those years. Drugs and alcohol affect how

Family Owned, Family Run • Colorado Company for Coloradans • 31 Years and Running • Award Winning • Residential and Commercial • Dedicated Friendly Staff

the brain functions, and possibly impact a person’s reward system and self-control.

“We know that there’s issues if people start to use substances in those early years,” he said.

When talking to kids, he recommends parents start young, even as early as grade school age, he said, although using ageappropriate terms. It’s important for young people to know their parents don’t think using drugs and alcohol is acceptable.

“It’s not a moral thing,” he said.

“It’s a safety issue.”

Valuck also cautions that people’s risk assessment of substances has decreased, and he reminds people of all ages that no substance is perfectly safe, including over-thecounter and prescription drugs.

“There is no totally safe drug,” he said. “Every drug has side effects.”

Personal stories connect with kids When it comes to teaching kids about substance use and the power of prescription drugs, Martin believes they have to be reached on an emotional level.

So, he’s willing to get personal.

In those Y.E.S.S. sessions, he opens up about undergoing back surgery a year and a half ago.

Martin was prescribed strong painkillers. He says he felt firsthand the effects of becoming

reliant on the drugs and then the K withdrawal symptoms that followed t when he took himself off the drugs m f to avoid addiction.

And it wasn’t just physical side effects, Martin said. In addition to t cravings, Martin said he also began s having thoughts and feelings he’d o never had before.

Both Martin and Valuck advised s parents to let their children know e p that the “everyone-is-doing it” mentality is a big misconception. p t “If you truly want to fit in with c your peers,” Martin said, “most w kids are not using.”

Martin also recommends that parents stay up-to-date on what’s new in the world of substances. For example, he said, the sheriff ’s office has encountered many students with vape pens that look like USB ports, which can contain a variety of drugs.

“It’s not always nicotine,” he said.

“They can be swapped out for THC. We’ve found heroin in them.”

Most importantly, Valuck emphasized that parents shouldn’t doubt the impact they can have on a child by openly discussing the dangers of drugs and alcohol — not only around times like prom and graduation, but also year-round.

“Research has shown,” he said, “that they listen to us more than we think.”

HUNGER FROM PAGE 8

Kaiser and Nash said is important, because the working poor may not have time to get to a food bank during its set hours.

“You could literally go at three in the morning,” Kaiser said.

Doctors Care was chosen over other locations for a few reasons: It is located close to more economically-disadvantaged parts of Littleton, many of the patients that come in and out of the building may face food insecurity and CEO Bebe Kleinman was receptive to the idea.

“The kids live in this little

bubble, but a few miles from their house there are families struggling, Kaiser said.

Kleinman said that Doctors Care screens patients for food insecurity and the Little Free Pantry helps complement that.

“It’s a really kind gesture,” she said.

The pantry was set up on May 6 and stocked with cereal, canned beans, applesauce and other dry goods. Between then and when the group arrived to do a ribbon-cutting in a driving rain storm on May 8, it had already had food both taken out and put into it. The group believes it will prove to be popular.

“I think,” Nash said, “it will spread like wildfire.”

VOICES You’ll never get off the ground if you’re trying to avoid the grind

QUIET DESPERATION

Craig Marshall Smith

I

don’t believe in wishing and hoping and praying for things to get better. I don’t believe in positive thinking all by itself, or slogans to grease the way.

There’s work to be done.

Meditation and tent meetings and retreats and colonic irrigations aren’t on my list.

I don’t believe that you get there from here by being out there.

I would sooner make summer camp moccasins than sit in a room with hundreds of others and listen to a heap of calibrated phrases.

Most of us are recovering from something.

Bad relationships, job failures, drugs, alcohol, financial woes, the recent election.

We like to be handed pamphlets at the door.

Given DVDs. Hear a deep voice say, “Listen without interrupting. Speak without accusing. Give without sparing, but we don’t accept American Express.”

I take my cues from observation and lots of research, and then I simply roll up my sleeves and get to work.

Others need others.

My friend H. L. Mencken said, “Deep within the heart of every evangelist lies the wreck of a car salesman.”

Elsewhere, practically everywhere, it’s easy enough to find packaged motivation. Loseweight-with-this-pill kind of stuff.

No one loses weight by taking a pill, unless it puts you to sleep for 20 years.

Washington Irving wrote “Rip Van Winkle” after filing for bankruptcy in 1818, hoping to write his way out of debt.

He could have gone away just like Van Winkle, and bent elbows at the bar with a bunch of dwarves, just like Van Winkle.

Instead, he got to work.

I watched a film the other night. It was made before they figured out how to blow things up, including people, when films depended upon SEE SMITH, P13

s I write this, I’m sitting in an Indian restaurant taking advantage of the last day of a Groupon deal I bought last year. Looking around, I see couples, friends, and multi-generational families chatting, laughing, and enjoying breaking naan together.

Sitting alone at my computer, I could feel lonely, but I feel strangely connected to this “dining community.” Why? Maybe

because I’ve recently had an incredible lesson in my personal life that has dramatically proven the bond of my tribe around me.

As I termed out of office at the beginning of January, I was excited to find a consulting contract that could start right away.

How lucky was I to have the connections to make that happen? But soon, I would find out that the work would be postponed SEE NEWELL, P13

s holding on to tradition more important than change or trying something new? Are change and trying something new more appealing and intriguing than holding on to tradition? Do we hold on to tradiWINNING tion just because WORDS that is the way we were brought up and traditions are a comfort zone for us?

There are so many questions that could be asked, and certainly no shortage of opinions when it comes to the topic Michael Norton of tradition. I think the question I really want to explore is this one: Does our traditional thinking ever get in the way of our personal growth, community effectiveness, or business productivity?

Sometimes I think we hold on to tradition to preserve a special feeling or connection to something in our past or something connected to someone in our lives or from our past. There is nothing wrong with that — as a matter of fact, I have certain traditions that I still hold on to or practice because they bring back amazing memories of my grandmother or grandfather. And yet there are other traditions that I

was holding on to just for the sake of holding on to them. Even though intellectually I knew that a change was needed or warranted, my pride in clinging to tradition would win the battle.

Recently I was visiting a church that was about to celebrate its 160th anniversary. The church was small, beautiful, and had a wonderful congregation. Many of the regular worshippers had been attending this church for many, many years.

Generations of families filled the pews, and being such a small church in a small town, everyone knew each other quite well.

After the church service everyone gathered for coffee and some light pastries and cakes. The topic of discussion that morning centered around whether or not a new audio/ video system should be approved for the sanctuary. A new system would change the look and feel of the sanctuary and this had many of the traditionalists in a bit of a panic as they believed that nothing should disrupt the physical appearance of the sanctuary as it stood today. Yet others who had visited neighboring churches or attended church services in other areas shared how the use of audio and video really helped

scripts and directors and good acting, instead of junk in space.

I watched and listened for dialogue and dialogue pauses, editing, lighting, and “Dutch” camera angles.

The soundtrack is unforgettable.

I thought about the director, Carol Reed, who knew what he was doing because he studied film, and got to work.

I’ll name it at the end of this, but here are some other clues: zither, postwar Vienna.

I am recovering from something — maybe a number of things — but the main one is the bottle.

and postponed and… postponed.

Four months later, still waiting to start the project, I had somehow managed to live off the reward points of my maxed out credit cards, coupons, health expense reimbursements, dinners at friends’ occasionally, hors d’oeuvres at events I’d be invited to, and my daughter’s help with groceries. So essentially, since January, I’ve lived off of $400 income. Finally realizing this contract may still not start for a while, I started looking for other work, but by now, it was too late. I had already spiraled down.

Perhaps you’re thinking, “Why didn’t she have a savings account?” or “How could she let herself get so low?” Or maybe your thoughts are more like, “Finally, someone who lives like me” or “Yup, been there before.” But recently, I had to re-learn at a deeper level, that any thought or judgment you may have about me, is just that — your thought. I could go into defense and explain that living on a legislator salary of about $2 to $4 dollars an hour over a period of eight years doesn’t allow you to put anything in a savings account or blah, blah, blah. Or I could feel guilt about having the privilege of even having a credit card. But neither of those were my lessons I needed to understand this time.

The point is that I have to do much more than sign up for a seminar.

A long, long time ago, I heard about record albums that you could listen to in your sleep, so you didn’t have to do the work when you were awake.

You could learn a foreign language in your sleep.

You could learn about self-help in your sleep.

mortgage, bills or groceries, I knew I needed to reach out, but was too full of shame for not being self-sufficient and fear that I would be judged. But after days of trying to negotiate my bills and nights of little sleep, I finally swallowed my pride, explained my situation on Facebook, and asked for help. Instead of judgment, I immediately received ideas, leads, prayers, and kudos for being so nakedly honest. Within a few short days, with the loving and generous help of my tribe, I’ll now be able to stay in my home, manage my bills, and most likely, secure work by next week. Obviously, I needed to remember to walk through my fear, ask for help and receive the gifts of community around me.

Now, although alone at this table, I am deeply grateful once again that I am also enveloped by a loving and nurturing community around me. So if you are experiencing fear, shame, or guilt about something and suffering alone, reach out and ask for help.

And if you feel you have no tribe to turn to, ask your neighbor, your grocer, your county or state officials.

The support may shock you. You are never alone.

connect the message for them and especially helped their children connect to the message.

The latter group believed that a change was needed in order to attract new members to the church and to help continue to build upon the legacy of the church that had been established 160 years ago.

And the other group felt it would be disrespectful to cut into the walls and mar the sanctuary in any way.

As I listened to both sides of the debate, I couldn’t help but think about what I was holding on to just for the sake of holding on to it. Was I living in my own comfort zone full of traditions that I was unwilling to give up for no other reason than “just because”? And just like this church I was visiting,

perhaps the old guard in my own heart and head could easily have the same debate: Do I preserve the traditions of my past and present, or am I willing to shake things up a little and grow? I guess the answer is somewhere in between.

So how about you? Are you a traditionalist? Or are you OK with breaking through your comfort zone a little from time to time and going through some changes that can help you expand your thinking and grow? Either way, I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@ gmail.com. And when we can ride the balance of holding to certain traditions while exploring new ways of thinking and behaving, it really will be a better than good week.

LIFE

Parkour and ninja rise in popularity Two similar, young sports gain legitimacy with gyms and TV shows

BY KYLE HARDING KHARDING@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

P

arkour came into Mark D’Agosta’s life the way many people find their passions in the 21st century — YouTube.

“I was already doing this stuff,” he said. “There just wasn’t any sort of training or name for it.”

By “this stuff,” D’Agosta, 32, means parkour, a loosely-defined physical training discipline in which participants essentially create obstacle courses from the environment around them that was developed in France in the 1980s.

“I was

climbing on buildings, getting on roofs and stuff when I was a kid,” said the Englewood resident.

In 2009, his sister saw the videos of the sport that had become popular online.

“She was like, `Hey, look, there are people who do the stuff you do — but they’re good at it,’ ” he said.

Parkour has moved indoors in recent years, first being incorporated into gymnastics programs. As popularity has grown, dedicated parkour gyms have sprung up, and

a new offshoot, “ninja training,” has evolved.

Ninja, as seen on the televised American Ninja Warrior competition and others like it, has competitors running defined obstacle courses against one another, distinguishing it from parkour.

“Parkour is pure imagination,” said John Maul, who co-owns Ninja Intensity gym in Castle Rock with Brandi and Ryan Lebsack.

Ninja Intensity offers classes in parkour and ninja, mainly geared towards kids. The Lebsacks decided to open the gym after their son, Kaden, found a passion for it. Their classes have steadily increased in size since they opened in December and they plan to offer camps this summer.

D’Agosta has coached parkour, along with gymnastics, in gyms but prefers outdoors, finding areas downtown where one can find walls, fountains or other infrastructure that can be turned into obstacles without trespassing.

“For me,” he said, “parkour is about your environment.”

D’Agosta founded the parkour club at Arapahoe Community College in Littleton, where he recently graduated. This past semester, he had about 10 consistent club members. The most he has had in a semester was 50, split between ACC students and community members.

Ninja training is mostly done in the gym, and practitioners are in the midst of trying to legitimize it as a sport, with organized leagues like the National Ninja League popping up.

Lorin Ball, an American Ninja Warrior competitor, owns Ninja Brand Parkour Gym in Henderson, about 15 miles north of Denver along I-76. Although most of his students are kids, he said, the sports of ninja and parkour

PARKOUR VERSUS NINJA Parkour has its roots in 1980s France, and its founding is most often credited to David Belle, who created the sport with inspiration from his father, Raymond Belle, who developed a passion for running obstacle courses, or “parcours du combatant,” while growing up in a military orphanage in French-occupied Vietnam.

David Belle and a group of his friends used their skills to

conquer improvised obstacles in urban areas.

The sport of ninja is much more recent, springing from the Japanese competition TV series “Sasuke” and its American spinoff “American Ninja Warrior.”

Though many skills from parkour apply to ninja, they differ in that the latter is an organized, competitive event on a closed course.

appeal to teens, young adults and even older adults looking to try something new.

“They need more,” he said. “They need something where they can apply the exercise they’ve done.”

Maul came to the budding sport not long ago, with most of his fitness background being in powerlifting. Many of the adults starting ninja are also Crossfit PHOTOS BY SHUTTERSTOCK athletes, weightlifters, runners or rockclimbers, Ball said.

For kids, Ball says parkour and ninja are ways to “get off of the video games and be the video game.”

Joey Piersee, 16, started ninja recently and is already coaching kids at Ninja Intensity.

“It’s a good way to work out,” he said. “It’s a good way to have fun. It’s a good way to be competitive.”

While there is certainly a completive angle to ninja, particularly at the higher levels, Maul said it is really more about competing against yourself.

“It’s a small world,” he said, “and what I SEE PARKOUR, P17

truly love about it is the support we give each other.”

Training in gyms, with mats, adds an element of safety. D’Agosta has had several inuries doing parkour over the years.

“I broke my hand, I shattered my collarbone, hyperextended my elbow and had a few pretty serious tendon issues in my ankle and shoulder.”

However, D’Agosta said those were mainly in his early years in the sport, when he had less understanding of how to train safely. His past injuries have influenced him to pursue a career in physical therapy.

People will drive a long way to train in parkour or ninja. Before opening the gym, the Lebsacks were driving Kaden to Longmont to work out. Brandi said Ninja Intensity has members from as far away as Colorado Springs.

After four years of coaching, Ball doesn’t see an end to the popularity.

“We still haven’t seen a plateau yet,” he said.

What would you change about the world?

olorado Community Media wondered how this year’s high school graduates would answer that question. Their responses leave you confident about our future, in the hands of people who want to create a world that is kinder, with more tolerance and compassion for all. Take a moment, in these next few pages, to listen to what the Class of 2017 has to say.

Eve Miserlian Arapahoe High School Miserlian has been a member of the Warrior marching band, winter percussion ensemble, and student council. She also participated in cross country, track and pit orchestra. She will attend Syracuse University to study architecture.

What profession or career do you want to pursue? Why? I will be pursuing a career in architecture. I love that it combines some of my favorite subjects — math, physics, art and design — into a single art. I look forward to working with other people and helping them design the homes of their dreams. Architecture is made for its functionality, but it also has the capability to transform the atmosphere of an area and captivate its onlookers. I hope to trans-

form the world through my own architectural design.

What do you hope to accomplish in life?

I hope, more than anything else, to make a positive impact on everyone I meet. I’ve always liked the idea of changing the world one person at a time, spreading kindness in small doses to the people around me. It may be cliche, but one small act of kindness can have an amazing impact on a person, whether they’re your best friend or a complete stranger. I aspire to make the world a better place by spreading positivity and happiness.

If I could do anything, it would be to …

Travel around France. The cuisine is some of the best in the world, and the architecture is rich with history and culture. I am enthralled by the French language, so I would love to become fluent through immersion.

Sydney Gonzales Englewood High School Gonzales played basketball and soccer all four years at EHS, was involved in the newspaper and National Honor Society and has volunteered in various events.

Gonzales plans to attend University of Colorado-Denver and study elementary education.

What profession to you want to pursue and why?

I want to be an elementary school teacher. I have volunteered working with kids. I guess the reason I want to be an elementary school teacher is because I love kids.

What do you hope to accomplish in life?

I want to work hard to be a good teacher. I want to work with each and every student in my class. I know that education is very important so I want to do everything I can to help all the kids I teach get a good education so they can get ahead in life.

If you could do anything it would be to …

Redo my high school career. If I could do that I would get in a lot more activities like student government. I would still be very involved in athletics, but I would be part of other athletic teams and not just varsity soccer and basketball.

What would you change about the world “How quick we are to judge others based off an initial meeting, story or assumption. Oftentimes, we forget to put ourselves in the shoes of others or find the time to really take a moment to think about how something we say or do could have consequences that we can’t imagine. I feel like if we started to assess people as a whole rather than based off of implicit biases and prejudice, we’d be able to solve a good bulk of problems we currently see in the world.”

— Fese Elango, Cherry Creek

“Censorship. I would change censorship because people’s art and people’s music are being censored for dumb reasons and they can’t express themselves because it’s too ‘inappropriate’ or ‘explicit.’ You know curse words or naked bodies offend people. Embrace differences.”

— Danny Ogles, Littleton

“How people treat each other and want people to see that they are not alone, because there are many people who think they are alone but they aren’t.”

— Gabe Smith, Arapahoe

“I would do away with all the hate in the world. I would do that because there are millions and millions of people in the world and all are different, and there are people when they see people different from them, they hate them and that hurts the people they hate. I guess that makes the people who hate feel superior.”

Sarah Fantle Littleton High School Fantle was involved in swimming, the student council and political committee. She will attend the University of Wyoming, where she plans to study engineering and join the Air Force ROTC program.

What career would you like to pursue and why?

My ideal career that I would like to pursue is something in the aerospace and astronautical engineering field. What exactly I will do, I have no idea.

Though, ideally, I would like to work somewhere in the space travel industry for Blue Origin, SpaceX or NASA. If that was not the path that I took then I would also be interested in regular aircraft design. If I end up being in the Air Force then all the things that I want to do with engineering could potentially be through government work. I really have no idea right now what exactly I will be doing, but my passion lies with flying. So whatever it is that I do, it will revolve around that.

Matt McClurg

What do you hope to accomplish in life?

To find my bliss. Something to make me happy and fulfilled in life. Whether that is through some day having a family of my own, or the power of knowledge and education, or maybe through religion or mission work or serving others. I think finding my path that will get me to that point will be difficult, or maybe it will be the path that I take that will be my accomplishment. I really don’t have some profound point that I want to get to or something super-specific that I want to accomplish. I just want to do the best I can do in life and enjoy the time that I have with the people I love.

If I could do anything, it would be to ...

Go to space. I first became intrigued with space my freshman year of high school when I listened to some audio files of Carl Sagan speaking, and from that point I was captivated with the vastness of the universe. There is so much out there waiting to be discovered, but there is just as much on Earth. And to be at that divide point and be able to look back at our planet and see everything that we are, but also at the same time to look out into never-ending space and everything that we can be and can know would be the most insane opportunity.

Heritage High School McClurg was on the Honor Roll, a National Honor Society member, student government representative and Life 101 leader. He also played football and basketball. He has committed to play football at Oklahoma State University, where he plans to double major in mechanical and aerospace engineering.

What career would you like to pursue and why?

I want to be an engineer.

It’s a great way to display my math and science

skills in the real world.

What do you hope to accomplish in life?

Throughout my life experiences, I would like to achieve perfection in everything I do. Life is too short not to excel at anything you put your mind to. Whether it may be football or engineering, I know that giving 100 percent effort in everything I do will result in major success.

If I could do anything, it would be …

Becoming a successful man. I would like to try and show my various attributes to society, in order to let my parents know they are proud of the person that I become.

What would you change about the world and why?

“I would erase all social media and erase the idea of it from everyone’s mind because it has created a false reality for teenagers, and I think our generation has lost the ability to speak to one another about problems and emotions.”

“Give people with disabilities equal opportunities and give them the ability to realize their potential and not have to be confined to the label of their disability.”

— JJ Zykan, Cherry Creek

— Macy Ziegler, Arapahoe

“More super powers cause there aren’t enough of them today.”

“The way the media has forced people to see beauty as pretty and skinny. I think it is wrong to just judge people by how they look because I think everyone is beautiful in his or her own way.”

Courtney Schauer, Englewood

— Avery Hall, Arapahoe

“Ending what I call the epidemic of apathy. What I mean by that is that people just don’t care anymore.

We gotta fix that. We gotta get more involved in what goes on in the world, in others’ lives and stuff like that. I think we will build a more globally conscious world, which is good. “ — Ethan Trampler, Littleton

Nick Beran

always been very good at debate/ communication.

What do you hope to accomplish in life?

My two main mentors are Elon Musk and Steve Jobs, as I have always had a desire to create something that makes the world a better place. I want to have an impact on people that makes their lives better and easier.

Armbrust played football and basketball, participated in DECA and also served as a youth group leader. He plans to attend Colorado State University and major in business administration and minor in political science.

What profession or career do you want to pursue? Why? I’ve always been an entrepreneur at heart and I plan to run my own business one day. I’m very excited as I’m currently in the midst of a startup that I hope to launch in the fall of 2017.

If I had to choose a real profession I would look into law school, as I have

If I could do anything, it would be to ...

Build a homeless apartment complex in all major cities and allow homeless people to live there and eat daily meals on a regular basis. My goal would be to give them resources to get an education or a job to eventually be independent.

Everyone has hard times and some people just need a second chance or a little help.

Cherry Creek High School Beran has been a part of the Peer Ambassador program, AVID, Rugby Club, band, Unified basketball and Fellowship of Christian Athletes. He plans to attend Azusa Pacific University in California.

What do you hope to accomplish in life?

One thing I hope to accomplish in life is to inspire and motivate people. My entire life goal was said by someone anonymous and they said, “I want to inspire people. I want someone to look at me and say ‘Because of you I never gave up.’ “ With that locomotion, I seem to have my life totally set, but I do not. Because my world is not in my hands, it is in His hands.

What profession or career do you want to pursue? Why? The profession or career I want to pursue is being a pastor. This profession is an interest to me because I am very involved in my church and all of my role models throughout my life have been my youth pastors. Putting two and two together, I want to inspire the world with God to back me up.

If I could do anything, it would be to ...

Own a potbelly pig as a house pet. A big goal for me is to do things others would not, to be individual. A question I ask myself all the time is, “How many people can say they...?”

Therefore, how many people can say they own a potbelly pig? Exactly.

What would you change about the world and why?

“It would have to be anger.

There is so much hate and anger that it kills.”

— Chelli Sherrett, Littleton

“I would take away all the hate and negativity in the world.”

— Jordyn Baker, Arapahoe

“I would put a stop to all the wars in the world. I would do that because I believe that when people are fighting instead of loving each other a lot goes wrong. I think that results in bad judgments and that is what is wrong with our world. I feel that could change if there weren’t wars and people could see each other for what they really are.”

“I would eradicate the feeling of apathy that many people have for each other and many social issues. There are so many problems in the world that could easily be solved if only more individuals cared about them once they learned about the problem at hand.”

Sam Westra, Englewood

— Eva Doherty, Heritage

“How quick people are to judge one another, because the first step to solving our issues is understanding each other.”

— Molly Frommelt, Cherry Creek

“How much conflict there is in the world. A lot of stuff going on in Syria right now, and the Middle East in general. It’s been going on for years and I think that needs to come to an end.”

Town Hall painting exhibition offers works by four women

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Rita Campbell of Englewood, Patti Harrison of northwest Denver, Rachel Hueske of Aurora and Karen Kennedy of Roxborough make up a quartet of artists exhibiting their paintings in “Salon d’ Littleton,” an exhibit that accompanies Town Hall Arts Center’s lighthearted final show of the 20162017 season: “Hairspray,” through June 27.

Campbell, a Littleton Fine Arts Guild member and recent Signature member of the Colorado Watercolor Society, writes that she “enjoys experimenting with different forms of art, including painting with coffee, alcohol inks and melted wax (encaustics).” When Campbell retired from the University of Denver, her husband

gave her a gift certificate to Judi Patti’s Painting Studio in Littleton as a Christmas present. Since then, she has continued to study with Patti and attended a number of workshops with area painters. She teaches encaustics technique as well as painting with it.

Her brilliantly colored “Magic Hairspray” is especially appropriate for a show that accompanies “Hairspray.”

She says it uses alcohol ink.

Harrison paints landscapes, animals and florals with a relaxed feeling, as well as high-energy, high-tension abstracts. She has been painting in watercolor, oils and acrylic paints for 15 years and says each offers different challenges. She is also a metalsmith, creating jewelry with silver, copper, cabochons and freshwater pearls — and in both areas is inspired by the beauty of her materials. With an MBA

IF YOU GO “Salon d’ Littleton” opens on May 17 in the Stanton Gallery at Town Hall Arts Center, 2450 W. Main St., Littleton.

Her work is at the Light Rail Gallery in Arvada and Main Street Fine Art Gallery in Evergreen.

Hueske says her recent work is inspired by Aboriginal art. She primarily paints in acrylics, but enjoys other media. Trained in K-12 art education, she is also a professional dog groomer.

At this time in her life, she finds time

to paint when her 3-year-old and infant are napping. She has exhibited at the PACE Center and Integrative Health in Denver’s RiNo Arts District, Nixon’s Coffee House in Englewood, Copper Mountain Arts Show, Elizabeth Music and Arts Festival and more.

Kennedy, past president of the Roxborough Arts Council, writes: “Changing the colors in the changing light is my fascination. This is what I remember most about any subject I choose. Whether painting wildlife (look for her “Scarface” in the show — a bear appeared in her neighborhood), buildings or people, color is my inspiration … I value working with other artists, sharing knowledge, techniques and gallery experience. I am continuing my education with professional artists.”

Bruins reclaim state tennis title

A trip to state is worth the wait

H

Cherry Creek players pose with their trophy after taking the Class 5A girls tennis team championship. The Bruins scored the points to win the title in the matches for first and third places on the final day of the May 11-13 tourney.

TOM MUNDS

Cherry Creek earns 34th girls championship

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Cherry Creek again took home the Class 5A state girls tennis title as the Bruins reclaimed the trophy on May 13, the final day of the three-day tournament played at the Gates Tennis Center in Denver.

The Bruins had won 19 consecutive championships until the streak was broken last year when Fairview was the team title winner. Creek coach Chris Jacobs said the victory means the Bruins will start working at

once to start another streak of winning titles.

“This is a wonderful group of girls who work very hard every time on the court. They are awesome,” Jacobs said. “We have four seniors we are going to miss but who will be going on to play tennis in college. Most of our girls play tennis all year. Our program is very consistent and we have great participation.”

This year’s team title champion remained uncrowned going into the matches on May 13 to decide individual champions and third-place winners. Cherry Creek led in team scoring with 51 points, Mountain Vista was in second place with 45 points and Ponderosa was third with 39 points. But the Bruins scored

the needed points in their May 13 matches to earn the title.

Cherry Creek athletes took home state championship medals at No. 3 and No. 4 doubles. Wendy Yan and Rachel Schiff won the No. 3 doubles title by defeating McKenna Farley and Caitlin Quirk 6-0, 6-1, and Grace Shepard and Kaki Cantor teamed up to win the No. 4 doubles championship by defeating Kim Collamore and Tara Toepke of Fossil Ridge, 6-1, 6-4.

Bruins Caroline Danos and Lexie Fisher won third place at No. 3 doubles over the Rock Canyon team of Jennifer Gallagher and Grace Chadwick in SEE TENNIS, P33

STANDOUT PERFORMERS Aaron Faragallah, baseball, junior, Castle View: He went 3-for-3 with six RBIs that included a grand slam and a two-run homer in the Sabercats’ 12-9 win over Chaparral on May 8.

Jenna Chun, golf, senior, Highlands Ranch: She captured the Class 5A Southern regional title with a 76 on

May 8 at Meadow Hills Golf Course.

Sydney Maxson, soccer, senior, Arapahoe: She scored on a second-half free kick to lift the Warriors to a 1-0 Class 5A soccer playoff win over ThunderRidge on May 12.

Quenton Parr, baseball, senior, Cherry Creek: He pitched a seven-inning,

complete game, three-hit shutout in the Bruins’ 3-0 win over ThunderRidge in the Region 1 championship game on May 13.

Hannah Peterson, soccer, junior, Ponderosa: She scored three goals in the Mustangs’ 7-0 win over Pueblo County in a first-round Class 4A soccer playoff game May 10.

STANDOUT PERFORMERS are five athletes named from south metro area high schools. Preference is given to those making their debut on the list. To nominate an athlete, contact Jim Benton at jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com

attie Poole wasn’t about to let what she called a “harsh” round of golf and a long weather delay rain on her parade.

The Heritage junior still managed to qualify and will be playing in the Class 5A state golf tournament at The Club at Rolling Hills in Golden on May 22-23.

She carded a 96 at the OVERTIME Western Regional tournament at Fox Hollow in Lakewood on May 8, but tied for the final statequalifying spot with Anna Branscome of Bear Creek.

A playoff was set, but severe weather was approaching.

Poole and Branscome Jim Benton each made par on the first hole on the Meadow course, but after hitting their tee shots on the second hole, lightning forced the golfers to mark their balls and retreat to the clubhouse.

Then rain and hail started, but Poole had her teammates with her and they waited for more than an hour while coaches and Colorado High School Activities Association officials went over options on how to complete the playoff.

The decision was made to resume play instead of returning the next morning. A Fox Hollow grounds crew worker helped by clearing hail off the second green and the golfers tied the hole with bogeys.

The third hole could not be played because of hail on the fairway so the golfers moved to the par 3 fourth hole, where Poole’s bogey putt won the playoff.

“I was pretty exhausted,” Poole said. “I was excited. My teammates came over and gave me a hug. We all celebrated a little bit.

I got in the car and my mom and I were just sitting there emotionally drained.

“At this point, my main goal at Rolling Hills is to improve my game from how I played at the regional. I had a harsh round.

I didn’t play well at all. I was not expected to go to state after that day. So I’m just looking to play better at state.”

Hilton strikes back Senior right-handed pitcher Jacob Hilton surrendered a year of varsity baseball when he transferred from Arapahoe to Heritage.

He had to play on the Eagles’ junior varsity team last spring, but this year on the varsity he was one of the state’s strikeout leaders as he fanned 67 batters in 48 innings.

Hilton transferred to accompany his sister to Heritage.

“It was pretty tough,” he said. “Heritage is like family to me so I knew most of the guys.

It was tough not being with the team in the playoffs last year.”

Taking one for the team If you want to talk about sacrifice, visit with Rock Canyon golfer Brooklyn Murphy.

To make a complicated situation as simple as possible, the Jaguars finished second in the May 8 Western Regional and qualified a four-player team. However, one of Rock Canyon’s best golfers, Alexis Chan, didn’t play SEE BENTON, P37

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORDOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Arapahoe’s Sydney Maxson provided both the offensive and defensive punch as the Warriors earned a 1-0 secondround girls soccer playoff win over ThunderRidge on May 12 afternoon at Shea Stadium.

Maxson scored on an oddangled free kick in the 57th minute and then the senior center back sparked the Warriors’ defensive effort that stalled the ThunderRidge offense.

The win improved Arapahoe’s record to 13-4-0 and propelled the 12th- seeded Warriors into a quarterfinal match May 17 against Centennial League foe Cherokee Trail.

ThunderRidge, the Continental League champions and the No. 4 seed in the playoffs, ended the season with a 13-3-1 record.

Maxson’s game-winning goal came from 20 yards out near the left sideline.

“I had taken a free kick right before and I was upset that it wasn’t a good free kick,” said Maxson, who has signed to play soccer at Colgate. “I was really focusing on curving the ball so someone could get a head on it and it

ThunderRidge’s Katherine Stanley, left, and Arapahoe’s Madelyn Matthews nearly collide at the ball. The Warriors took home the 1-0 victory on May 12, eliminating the Grizzlies in 5A playoff action.

PAUL DISALVO ended up curving all the way into the goal.

“It was a really tough game to defend because they have a really good player up high in Shae (Holmes), and it was tough shutting her down. We all worked together and got a good result.”

Holmes, a junior midfielder, was the Continental League’s

top scorer with 20 goals and 47 points, but Arapahoe didn’t allow ThunderRidge to have many good scoring opportunities and notched its fifth shutout in the past five games.

“We knew defensively as a team that we had to play incredibly tight,” said Arapahoe coach Mark Hampshire.

“ThunderRidge offensively is

a wrecking ball. We knew we had to have a game plan and stick to — and that was the entire team not just the defenders. Team defense, that’s where it needs to be.

“Holmes is such an incredible player and one of the things we’ve always done, and sometimes it has hurt us, but we never focus on one player.

That’s not to say we weren’t paying attention to her, but the team is the one that took care of that.”

ThunderRidge coach Mike Parsons kept encouraging his team to play with a sense of urgency late in the game.

The Grizzlies responded but couldn’t score.

“We’ve dominated so much early in games this year and had halftime leads,” said Parsons. “It was different for us and put pressure on us. And, at least initially in the first half and the first part of the second half, we came out tight. I have a young team and with playoff pressure they just weren’t able to find their comfort zone.

“Why we didn’t find that urgency early in the game is that the physical stuff is one thing but the mental skills is what a lot of them need to work on.”

Parsons praised both Arapahoe and his team.

“Arapahoe is a good team,” he added. “They are very strong out of the air and they did beat us to a lot of balls. Kudos to them.

“This was the first time in 15 years that we won the Continental League and we beat our rival Mountain Vista. I told the girls you have to focus on that and can’t downplay that just because you didn’t win state. It hurts. I’ve got this euphoria and pain at the same time.”

Eagles lose tough battle in playoffs Heritage challenges Legacy in state girls soccer tourney

free kick sent the ball into the goal area. Defenders and attackers battled for possession until Caitlin Brown got the ball to Julia Best, who kicked the ball into the goal for Heritage to tie the score 1-1.

The tie didn’t last long as the Lightning responded with a goal about 30 seconds later to take the lead for good.

Legacy added a second-half goal to make the final score 3-1.

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The 27th-seeded Heritage Eagles entered the second-round game of the Class 5A state girls soccer tournament on May 12 looking to keep up the string of defeating higher-seeded teams as they faced 11th-seeded Legacy in a game played in North Stadium in Westminster.

Despite a determined Eagles effort, Legacy won the game, 3-1.

Heritage advanced to the second round by defeating sixth-seeded Fruity-Monument 3-1 in the May 9 first round of the state playoffs.

The Heritage challenge of playing a talented Legacy team was compounded about two minutes into the game when there was a hard collision at the mouth of the Eagles’ goal, resulting in the official giving senior goalie Ashleigh Maguire a red card. She had to leave the game and was replaced in goal by sophomore Tara

Cherry Creek girls win opener at state playoffs Top-seeded Bruins defeat Doherty 7-0

Cherry Creek senior Libby Geraghty, the soccer team’s top scorer with 21 goals and 51 points, claimed the Bruins are peaking at the right time after a 7-0 over Doherty on May 9 in the first round of the girls state soccer playoffs.

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORDOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Cherry Creek soccer girls coach Jim Schneider jogged the memory of his team before the opening match of the Class 5A state playoffs against Doherty on May 9 at the Stutler Bowl.

Schneider reminded his players that the Bruins’ boys soccer team was seeded third last fall but was upset by No. 30 Fossil Ridge, 2-1, and ousted from the 2016 state playoffs.

Creek’s girls, seeded first, took care of business with a 7-0 victory over the Spartans who traveled to Greenwood Village from Colorado Springs as the No. 32 seed.

“The coaching staff was concerned about Doherty’s two big scorers, Jilian Lahey and Jaelyn Brown, and about our team taking them lightly,” admitted Schneider. “Seven goals by five different players and assists from five players is spreading the wealth.

“It was really a team victory.

It took us 10 minutes to play

JIM BENTON

Geraghty had a goal and three assists for the Bruins, who improved to 15-0-1 on the season.

“We knew Doherty had some really strong players and would be a good oppo-

through our nerves. Once we started to connect and possess the ball, my confidence grew.”

Juniors Anna Weinstein and BreZhane Walker each scored twice and senior Libby

nent,” said Geraghty. “So we came out ready to play and we got the result we wanted.

A decisive win over Doherty shows that our team is peaking at just the right moment.”

Geraghty, who has signed to play soccer at the University of Colorado, is the Bruins and Centennial League’s leading scorer with 21 goals and 51 points.

Senior Meg Halvorson, bound for the University of Denver soccer team, is another Bruins scoring threat with 11 goals and 36 points on the season.

The shutout over Doherty was the 11th in 16 games for a Creek defense led by junior keeper Mia Raben, senior defenders Natalie Evans, Devon Peterson and Hannah Mimmack, plus midfielder Allie Dwinnell.

Cherry Creek has outscored the opposition, 69-5, this season.

“The reason our team has been so successful is because we have been so close and committed to our game plan,” explained Geraghty. “We play such strong defense and have an incredible backline and goalie behind us.

“Our offense has been so dangerous because we have a team behind us that is dedicated to protecting our goal at all costs and has been able to get us the ball in dangerous situations.”
