Youth need support from their loved ones during the many ups and downs of their teen years. You can help them grow and develop strategies for dealing with the changes that come their way.

Sometimes, just asking your teen how they’re feeling can help. Validate their feelings. Help them learn how to care for themselves and cope in healthy ways.

Denver Christian School football is back School has been without a football team since 2014

BY JOSEPH RIOS JRIOS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

here was a sense of excitement in the air at Denver Christian School in Lakewood in the evening of Sept. 19. The smell of hot dogs and hamburgers floated into the school’s football stadium’s stands. Children were walking into the stadium with pompoms dressed in blue Denver

Christian shirts.

As people began to file in and after words from Matt Covey, the head of the school, the Denver Christian community made their way to the field. They touched hands to make a tunnel before 16 high school students dressed in all blue with the word Thunder across their chest ran through the tunnel to a roar from the crowd.

The Thunder are back.

It’s been a long process for a pre-K through grade 12 school that has existed since 1916, but after an absence for five years, Denver Christian’s football program has returned.

Jefferson County Communities That Care

The football program currently has an eight-man junior varsity team, but it is planning on rolling out a varsity program for the 2020-2022 cycle. The Thunder’s first game of the season was a 60-0 home-game victory over Justice High School.

“You go back to history, (football) was a big part of the school for a long, long time, and now it’s back. It’s a restart, and it’s exciting,” said Covey. “When you lose something you love, and it gets taken away, and you work hard to bring it back — we want to celebrate that.”

JEFFCO SCHOOL BOARD DISTRICT 3 CANDIDATES

Meet Rob Applegate, Meet Stephanie Schooley, candidate for school board candidate for school board

BY CASEY VAN DIVIER CVANDIVIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Rob Applegate says the things from his elementary school years which stands out to him include the connections he made with classmates, but also the hard work his mother put in behind the scenes.

Applegate lived just outside of Chicago with his mom, who raised him as a single parent and worked two jobs.

Decades later, when Golden’s Pleasant Applegate View Elementary closed in 2017, he wondered if there was a large group of Pleasant View parents like his mother, who would have spoken up but didn’t have the opportunity because of their busy work schedules.

“Pleasant View was a less affluent community than some. I really feel like the parents couldn’t rally,” he said.

Hoping to advocate for those families and promote other improvements in the school district,

Applegate is running for the Director District 3 position on the Board of Education. The seat is one of five on the board, two of which are up for election in 2019.

Applegate is an Applewood resident and Jeffco parent who works as an energy market analyst. He has been a member of the Welchester Elementary PTA and was coordinator of the school’s Watch DOGS (Dads of Great Students) program.

Additionally, he has served as a board member for the Golden Schools Foundation, the Denver Museum of Nature and Science Development Steering Committee and Think 360 Arts for Learning.

With experience in the realms of science, art and education, Applegate believes he is well qualified to make decisions for the good of the entire district, he said.

If elected, he would collaborate with board members to ensure all experiences in Jeffco are equitable, which could be accomplished in several ways, he said. For instance, the district could create new virtual SEE APPLEGATE, P6

As former president and current member of the Stober Elementary PTA, Stephanie Schooley has spent years brainstorming ways the PTA can help its community improve.

But she’s also put a special emphasis on making sure the PTA itself improves, working to “expand the sense of who belongs” in the Stober PTA, she said.

“A lot of times, Schooley people don’t engage unless they’re asked, so PTAs can be kind of insular,” she said. “The most important thing for us was building the coalition of voices. It’s a group of parents, neighbors and members of the business community coming together.”

Since joining the PTA, Schooley’s been climbing a “ladder of involvement,” she said, which has ultimately led her to the 2019 Board of Education elections. Now, Schooley is running for the Director District

t T C t t 3 position, one of five seats on the d school board. h Schooley lives in Applewood with t her husband and two daughters, p who attend Stober Elementary and p Everitt Middle School. For 19 years, she has worked at nonprofit Campus t Compact of the Mountain West, o which collaborates with higher t education institutions to provide students civic engagement opportunities that relate to their studies.

Schooley was promoted to executive director of the nonprofit in 2010.

“Our mission is to create opportunities to connect what students are learning with why it matters,” she said, so that they can learn how to use their education beyond “what it means for a career.”

If elected, Schooley said she would “create a real budget priority” to increase teacher compensation, which would incentivize seasoned educators to stay in Jeffco and would ensure teachers can afford to live in the community in which they work.

Action Center announces reopening of shelter

BY JOSEPH RIOS JRIOS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The past couple of years were testing times for The Action Center.

Toward the end of 2017, The Action Center’s Executive Director Mag Strittmatter resigned from her position that she held for over 15 years. As donations decreased, the Lakewood human-services nonprofit was forced to suspend its overnight shelter — a place that helped an average of 18 people a night.

Now, days appear to be looking better for The Action Center.

As it celebrated its 50th anniversary on Sept. 14 at a block party, The Action Center announced it will reopen

its overnight shelter, according to a release. The reopening is part of a partnership with Red Rocks Community College and will allow for six to 12 students to have housing each semester, the release reads.

“We know that there are many faces of homelessness in our community.

Students experiencing homelessness are some of the most invisible,” said Action Center Executive Director Pam Brier. “Intervening at this critical moment, before a student has been forced to abandon their plan is critical. We are thrilled to be able to help students stay on course with their studies and career goals, provide the wrap around supports that will lead to stable housing and employment.”

Were Last Week’s “Climate Strikes” Enough of a Wake-up Call on Climate Change?

We can thank Al Gore, for educating us about global warming, but I wish someone else, like Carl Sagan, had performed that valuable service. I can’t think to any other scientific discovery which became partisan in a similar way.

Remember CFC’s and the ozone hole? It wasn’t a partisan issue. The issue was addressed quickly in a bi-partisan manner.

Weather forecasters, not politicians, taught us about El Nino and La Nina—cyclical events in which minor changes in ocean temperature create weather patterns affecting our entire continent. No one has said El Nino is not real.

It’s only because Al Gore introduced us to the “inconvenient truth” about climate change that his teachings were disputed and rejected as left-wing propaganda by those on the right. How sad, how unfortunate, and how deadly the consequences.

Last Friday I attended the “Climate Strike” event on the Colorado School of Mines campus and watched news coverage of bigger events around the world.

I’m 72 now, and, yes, the climate will worsen before I die. But those under 40 and certainly those under 20 are seeing the early effects of global warming and worry that their world will be unlivable by the time they’re my age.

Back in June, I attended my 50th reunion at M.I.T, during which there was a Technology Day symposium on climate change. One of the speakers, Prof. No-

elle Selin, told us that the global concentration of carbon dioxide was 325 parts per million when we graduated, but now it was 410 ppm. She made us think about those who graduated this year (who she dubbed “the class of 410 ppm”) and questioned what class would be graduating at their 50th reunion.

Will it be the “class of 500 ppm” or the “class of 700 ppm”? And what will life be like for them at their 50th reunion?

It was a sobering presentation.

And you can be sure that it was even more sobering for the Class of 2019 and for M.I.T. students who have yet to graduate. I have a link for it at www.GoldenREblog.com.

The impact on real estate — and national security — is apparent when you consider the people who are likely to emigrate from heavily impacted areas such as the Bahamas, Florida, Houston — and Syria. Drought, as much as civil war, contributed to the exodus of Syrian refugees to Europe. Indeed, over a decade ago the U.S. Defense Department began calling climate change a threat to national security. I can understand why.

About Student Debt Forgiveness

Some readers of last week’s column got the impression that I supported the forgiveness of student debt. I still need to be convinced that it would be a good thing to do. The point of my column was merely to speculate on the market effect if that idea were to be implemented.

The headline of my column on Jan. 14, 2014 was, “We May Have Already Passed the Tipping Point on Climate Change.” That statement was based on the already dramatic reduction in summer sea ice in the Arctic Ocean, as documented on a chart from the Earth Policy Institute at Rutgers,. The chart showed a correlation between the increase in atmospheric CO2 from 300 to 400 ppm since the Industrial Revolution, and the 50% loss of summer sea ice in the Arctic between the late 20th Century and 2013.

The reason that loss of sea ice creates a tipping point is that sea ice, being white, reflects sunlight, whereas open ocean, being dark, absorbs sunlight, causing more ice to melt and to melt faster. A warmer Arctic region in turn upsets weather patterns worldwide.

That observation was made almost 6 years ago, and now the Arctic Ocean is open and navigable in part of the sum-

mer. In these more recent years we have experienced the polar vortex and wilder than normal fluctuations of the jet stream. Warmer oceans in the tropics have caused stronger, slower hurricanes, causing 500-year floods to become common, as is being experienced in Houston. These effects were already happening in 2012 with superstorm Sandy in New York and New Jersey and even here in the front range with the heavy rains and flooding of Sept. 2013.

Unfortunately, we have a president who never admits he was wrong, so he will never admit that climate change is real, that it is exacerbated by CO2 emissions, and that the only hope, if there is any this late in the game, of reducing the impacts of climate change is to reduce the output of greenhouse gases like CO2 and methane. Instead, inaction on climate change, and worse, may be this president’s #1 legacy. How sad.

Cops cooking pancakes in Lakewood

n Sept. 20, the Lakewood Police Department hosted its 21st annual Cops that Cook pancake breakfast fundraiser. This year, the event benefited the Lakewood Police Department Youth Police Academy. Attendees were treated to pancakes, sausage, orange juice and coffee at the Clements Community Center. The Lakewood Police Department Youth Police Academy gives teens a chance to see what a police officer experiences on a daily basis.

FOOTBALL

Matt Covey, the head of school for Denver Christian School, speaks to the crowd before the game. The school held its first home game at its Lakewood campus on Sept. 19.

FROM PAGE 1

Denver Christian used to reside in Denver, but it moved to Lakewood in 2014. The move prompted some families to look for other schools because they didn’t want to travel farther from Denver, causing the school to lose a lot of its football players. The school still planned on having a football team when it moved to Lakewood, and even had a football coach hired, but only six students signed up for the team — the school had to shut down its football program.

Half a decade later, Denver Christian senior running back and linebacker Josiah Romero said he felt a nervous, yet excited feeling as he ran out to the field under the bright lights and saw the stadium’s bleachers filled for the restarted team’s home opener.

By the time the school’s varsity football program settles in, he expects that the team is going to be tough to beat.

“It’s a different culture from not having (a football team) to having it all of a sudden. It’s been super fun, but challenging,” said Romero. “We don’t have the most kids here, but I feel like everyone has stepped up.”

In 2015, only 109 students went to Denver Christian’s high schoo. Now that number has increased to 179.

With an increase in students and interest in a football program, the school did a feasibility study last fall, according to Barb Landhuis, Denver Christian’s athletic director. It also needed

nearly $100,000 in hand for two years of operating budget to cover costs, Landhuis said. Denver Christian held a successful fundraiser that was able to help the school buy new uniforms and equipment.

“It was always a dream of our booster club and leadership that we restart football. God has given us some of the best facilities in Lakewood, and we want to use them,” said Covey. “We think extracurriculars can have a really positive influence on high school kids. We want to provide opportunities for kids.”

Dirk Visser is tasked with coaching the football team as it goes through its restart process. Visser, who is also a math teacher at the school, brings 20 years of football coaching experience, including a stint with Columbine High School where he served as an assistant

varsity football coach from 1999 to 2009.

He says trying to build a football program is a new challenge, and he’s learning as he goes. One of the challenges placed in front of him is building a culture where his team works hard, plays hard and understands that it’s a privilege to be on the football field, he says.

“I’m just a guy coaching football and trying to help these players be better young men. They’re the ones who stepped out and are taking the risk,” said Visser. “We’re brand new. A lot of the kids haven’t played contact football. They work hard, they do what we ask and we just try to get better every day and every week.”

“Our kids are making their own history now. They’re embracing that,” he said.

A crowd floods the stands at Denver Christian School. In 2015, only 109 students went to the school, but now that number has increased to 179 -leading to the school’s football program returning.

one is saddled with debt because of the reverse mortgage. As a financial tool, a reverse mortgage is a wise choice in many cases, providing relief from financial pressure in the nearterm, and greater financial security in the long-term.

“A reverse mortgage is basically a tax-free advance on your home equity,” writes Robert Massi. “For some people, a reverse mortgage can offer financial freedom to enjoy their later years without worrying about income.

For others, it can provide much needed help for staying in their homes.”

The money from a reverse mortgage can be used for any purpose.

“I’ve lived in my home for over 30 years. I didn’t want to leave it, and go where I didn’t know the neighbors. A reverse mortgage allowed me to have the security of staying in my home without a mortgage payment. What a relief!” —KS, Denver Aging in place is a benefit to many seniors. The ability to maintain the familiarity with the neighborhood, and routine of life can reduce stress and add years. For many seniors who are living longer, the question is, “How do I fund my longevity?”

Spouses are thinking about what will happen when one of them passes away. Will the surviving spouse be able to stay in the home comfortably?

The answer is often “Yes!” when a reverse mortgage has been put in place to ensure there is no mortgage payment and often, a sum of money available to the surviving spouse. The bank never owns the home and the property may be willed to the heirs.

Because a reverse mortgage is FHA insured, it is a non-recourse loan. No

Schooley, who has read through the entire district budget, said she believes board members would need to collaborate to find these resources.

Further, after serving as treasurer for several organizations, he aims to bring his math and analytical expertise to district budget discussions.

He would particularly like the budget to direct more funding toward teacher compensation, he said, to “make sure teachers feel supported by the district.”

She’d also like to start a conversation around how the district can provide additional opportunities to ensure that all students, no matter their background, “see a pathway that makes sense for them” in Jeffco Schools, she said.

“The district needs to intentionally use an equity lens,” she said.

“We should be doing continual outreach and conversation to make sure our students see their future in our district.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Not so easy to erase debt And just how might the local realtor, who writes a weekly ‘infomercial’ for his agency in several local newspapers or inserts, propose to pay for his proposal (9/19) to cancel all college student loan debt, and thus boosting property sales to hitherto unimagined heights?

Would he propose the creation of $1.5+ trillion (aka funny money) out of nothing by the ever-willing Federal Reserve, thus creating ‘the mother of all’ inflationary bubbles?

Or better, would he advocate defaulting on a requisite amount of our already bloated national debt?

Meanwhile, shouldn’t he and his peers sell their houses, cars, and agencies and give the proceeds to some anonymous ex-students (aka wage slaves) to ease their financial pains?

And what about the situations of those borrowers still in school, or those future college enrollees, born or unborn; would they qualify for this third-party largess?

Might a far better solution be, to get the Federal Government out of the student loan business entirely, thus forcing colleges to severely prune their bloated staffs and ratchet back their costs to more reasonable/attainable levels for their captive student customers?

Support the LWCF Many people aren’t familiar with the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) but it is critical to ensuring the places that parents go to get their kids outdoors. From neighborhood parks, playgrounds and ballparks to state parks and cultural sites, LWCF provides funds to make them possible without using tax-payer dollars. Created by Congress in the 1960’s, it has given grants to every state in the country and almost every county in Colorado. My family visits Van Bibber Creek Trail and Mount Falcon Park all the time, both of which received funds from LWCF. Unfortunately, Congress regularly raids the funds for LWCF these days. As Colorado grows, we need to continue to build these outdoor recreational opportunities so that our parks and trails don’t become as crowded as our roads. Because so many Colorado families are raising their kids in Colorado specifically for our outdoor lifestyle, our Members of Congress should be fighting for every penny in this fund.

Senator Gardner in particular, as a member of the majority party in the Senate, has the opportunity to make a difference for this fund and for our kids. I hope he’s doing everything in his power to convince Senate leadership that LWCF should be protected.

Likewise, good “Luck” is having accounted for all the variables and putting yourself in the right position to capitalize. Ask the Broncos. A team with no depth of talent and bad habits tends to have bad things “happen to it;” good teams find themselves in position so a strange bounce comes right to them. My son had a moment like that a couple weeks ago, as a pass by one of his soccer teammates bounced past five or six people to find him all alone for an easy goal. Was it luck? It didn’t look like luck when he was sprinting down the field 50 yards away from where the play was happening just to be in the right place at the right time.

Lakewood police shoot and kill man Incident occurred Sept. 20 at Lakewood Police Station

BY JOSEPH RIOS JRIOS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Lakewood Police shot and killed a 57-year-old man, according to a release from the department.

At around 8 p.m. on Sept. 20, Lakewood officers arrived at the Lakewood Police Station at 445 S. Allison Pkwy where they found a man and woman arguing.

After officers confronted the two, the man pulled out a handgun, according to the police statement. Officers responded and fired at the man. He was taken to a hospital where died from his injuries.

As of press time, the Jefferson County Coroner’s Office had not yet released the name of the deceased man.

The woman involved with the incident was taken to the police station and was not injured. No officers were injured in the incident. The officers involved in the shooting were placed on paid administrative leave pending the routine investigation of the shooting.

The Jefferson County Critical Incident Response Team is handling the investigation.

And it’s not that they weren’t confident — it’s that they knew the limits of their expertise. So, they would bring in people to help fill in where they weren’t smart, and then they would listen to them, and make their decisions. But these people who I’m thinking about also would invariably create opportunities for dissent, just to check their own thinking. You can always tell somebody who doubts their own intelligence by the number of “yes men” they keep around.

“Talent” is highly overrated, in my experience. Talent is nothing more than a shortcut — it means a process that should take 50 units of work to -get right only takes 20 units of work.

On the Axes are flying in Denver metro area as sport booms

LIFE

LSO looks edge to clear a high bar

‘Primal’ feeling The “thunk” of an ax landing on target can be pretty addictive, said Ian Christensen, the administrator of the International Axe Throwing Federation.

“When that ax sticks, it releases something inside you,” Christensen said. “You get the feeling you’re tapping into something primal. It’s encouraging and empowering to learn it’s something you can do. These days as we’re talking about people not connecting anymore, this is an easy way to overcome that.”

Though modern ax throwing has its roots in Canada, Christensen said the sport is likely as old as axes themselves.

“It’s catching on in urban areas, though, I think because people are looking for something different than the same old bowling and darts,” Christensen said. “Something edgier, if you don’t mind the pun.”

Watching the skyrocketing popularity of the sport is thrilling, Christensen said.

‘ hen a performer or organization is in the p midst of a remarkable o run, the most difficult o thing can be maintaining it. With b the start of its new season just a few weeks away, that doesn’t ap- 4 pear to be the case for the Lake- s h wood Symphony Orchestra. i The 2019-2020 COMING s season for the ATTRACTIONS LSO is entitled p s “Old Friends, New Faces” and aims to follow-up c E last year’s soldout season with as much diversity and quality as audiences have come to expect from the group. As I wrap Clarke Reader up my first year as a member of the symphony’s board, I’ve seen how much effort goes into making a season a success.

This year’s season kicks off with the aptly named “Season Opener,” which will be performed at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 3 at the Lakewood Cultural Center, 470 S. Allison Parkway. The show will include Beethoven’s “Fidelio Overture,” Brahams’ “Hungarian Dances,” and Bruch’s “Symphony No. 3,” as well as the “Trombone Concerto” by Grondahl, featuring John Sipher, principal trombone with the Colorado Symphony.

The rest of the season includes the annual pops concert and benefit auction on Nov. 21, with a focus on music from comedies and funny music. There’s the annual free holiday concert, which is presented with the Colorado Mormon Chorale on Dec. 5 and 6, followed by the family concert on Feb. 8. A three-show runs finishes the season up: the mid-winter concert on March 12, spring concert on April 16 and the season-closer on June 4. That final concert also coincides with the second annual season Celebration Dinner, which is a specially catered event before the show. “ The Lakewood Symphony is a hidden gem for the City of Lakewood and is not as well-known as it should be,” said resident and frequent audience member Maddie Nichols. “ We need to show it in a brighter fashion so that the whole metro area can support a professional classical entertainment opportunity.”

wo years ago, Ben Edgington was between jobs and looking for ways to pass the time.

Edgington, from Superior, decided to try ax throwing at Bad Axe in Denver, which at the time was the metro area’s only dedicated venue for the age-old sport in which players hurl hatchets at wooden targets.

Turns out Edgington was pretty good at it. So good that today he’s the reigning world champion in a sport that is exploding across the nation — and counts Denver as among its biggest hubs.

“It sounds weird, but it’s given me a sense of purpose,” said Edgington, 31.

“I’ve always been sort of solitary, but now I’m at the heart of a big, supportive community that’s really taking off.”

Today, the Denver area is home to a half-dozen ax-throwing venues, called “ax houses,” with more in the works.

Drop-in prices range from $20-$30 per hour.

Bad Axe, which operates more than 40 ax houses in the United States and Canada, is building a 12,000-square-foot ax-throwing emporium in Westminster.

Owner Mario Zelaya said it will be the “flagship ax house in North America” when it opens in February.

The future looks bright for the sport, Zelaya said.

“We’re doing for ax throwing what Topgolf did for driving ranges: making it cool. Making it hip. Adding technology,” Zelaya said. “Denver’s got a funloving, active vibe, so it’s a natural fit.

It’s a really exciting time.”

“It’s crazy to think this is something we used to do sitting around in a backyard in Toronto with a case of beer,” Christensen said.

Believe it or not, the sport is pretty safe, said Zelaya, the Bad Axe owner.

“We’ve had over 700,000 players in our ax houses without a single insurance claim,” Zelaya said. “Sometimes somebody will touch the blade and nick themselves, but that’s about it.”

‘Hard to master’ The basic rules of ax throwing are pretty simple, according to the website of the World Axe Throwing League, or WATL, the sport’s global governing body.

Players stand 12 feet back from a 4-foot-wide wooden target, and hurl short-handled axes — really more like hatchets — at a dartboard-like playing field. There are a variety of game styles, but tournament play gives players 10 throws each, and the highest score wins.

New players can expect to work with coaches, said WATL commissioner Evan Walters.

Applications will be accepted in early 2020, with the opportunity to win money and a chance to perform with the full orchestra.

“It’s not like bowling, where they give you a pair of shoes and cut you loose.

It’s a bit trickier than rolling a bowling ball down a lane, but the first time you nail an ax to a board, you can do it again,” Walters said. “It’s easy to learn, but hard to master.”

Not just lumberjacks The sport is pretty equal-opportunity, Walters said.

“People tend to think it’s a big macho thing,” Walters said. “It’s not just big bearded guys. About half the league is women. Everyone can have fun throwing — it’s not about strength and height, it’s about technique and precision.”

It’s also just a good way to goof around with friends, said Tina Kyte, owner of Wyze Axe Throwing, an ax house that opened on South Broadway in Englewood over the summer.

“We get a lot of company team-building events, and a lot of women come in for a great girls’ night out,” Kyte said.

“Sometimes it’s just someone by themselves, and in that case, I might jump in and challenge them to a round. We meet all kinds.”

The show runs through Oct. 6, with performances at 8 p.m. on Friday and Saturday and 6 p.m. on Sunday at The Bench at 40West, 1560 Teller St. in Lakewood.

Directed by Warren Sherrill, the show tells the story of conservative midwestern couple Dinah and Bill, who are grappling with the loss of their daughter. The situation prompts them to reach out to Dinah’s more liberal cousin, who lives in California with her husband. Together the four work to come to grips with their traumas and differences.

“We’re mostly in our 40s, so we’re a little old for the, shall we say, traditional bachelor party activities, and this sounded pretty cool,” said Scott Dory, the best man for University of Denver physics and astronomy professor Peter Hallam. “Maybe the drunken debauchery will come later.”

Hallam said despite what you might think, his physics background wasn’t much help.

“I’m not sciencing this one,” Hallam said. “You’ve got to develop a feel for it.

It’s a pretty satisfying feeling when that ax sinks in.”

What the future holds Ax throwing has the power to change lives, said Edgington, the world champ. Since the day he first picked up an ax two years ago, he’s met hundreds of new friends, been featured on TV shows, and even met his fiancé at Bad Axe, where he works as a coach. When the flagship location opens in a few months, he’ll likely be the manager.

There are even rumblings that ax throwing might become an Olympic sport, Edgington said, and he’d love to represent his country in the sport that’s meant so much to him.

“I meet so many people who were looking for something missing in their

lives, and they tried this, and they said, well, this is it,” Edgington said. “It’s a ridiculous passion.”

Wheat Ridge football wins 2OT thriller against Arvada West

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

LAKEWOOD — Rocco Tate could run for City of Wheat Ridge mayor and probably win in the upcoming November elections.

The Wheat Ridge junior running back/linebacker scored four touchdowns through the fourth quarter and two overtime periods late Friday night Sept. 20 at Jeffco Stadium. The Farmers rallied from a 14-0 deficit against Arvada West to take an improbable 28-27 victory in double-overtime.

“I told the kids before the game that every year there is a defining moment,” Wheat Ridge coach Stacy Coryell said. “I told them, ‘Let’s make this one the defining moment.’ I’m so proud of them.”

Tate had touchdown runs of 5 and 6 yards in the fourth quarter that erased the Wildcats’ 14-0 lead. The junior ran in a 2-point conversion on the second touchdown to make up for a missed PAT. “It was a great team win,” Tate said. “We finished hard. It all started with our hogs up front to make those touchdowns.”

Both of Tate’s overtime touchdowns came on fourth down from the 1-yard line. Junior kicker Matthias Endland made both of the PATs. The second extra-point kick by Endland sealed the victory and sent the Farmers’ sideline into a frenzy.

Coryell said the Farmers focused on running behind the left side of Wheat Ridge offensive line with senior Soren Howard and junior Chris Smith inside the 10-yard line.

A-West (0-4 record) had a pair of touchdown passes from junior Evan Nuhfer in the overtime period, but a

Wheat Ridge senior Max Christensen (9) runs downfield during the first half Friday, Sept. 20, at Jeffco Stadium in Lakewood.

Arvada West junior Evan Hurlburt (16) gets a pass away before Wheat Ridge’s Soren Howard (50) or Jack Michel (44) can get to the Wildcat quarterback during the first half Friday, Sept. 20, at Jeffco Stadium. The Wildcats led 14-0 in the fourth quarter, but ended up losing 28-27 in double-overtime.

PHOTOS BY DENNIS PLEUSS/JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS missed extra point after the Wildcats’ second touchdown came back to bite A-West.

“I always have faith in my team,” Tate said. “I know our defense will come out and shine.”

A-West was in control for three quarters. A promising drive by Wheat Ridge came to a sudden halt with an interception by junior Brady Laugen.

The Wildcats took over on their own 22-yard line.

Hurlburt went to work for A-West.

He connected with senior Nick Nuher on passes of 7, 11 and 15 yards. The big

pass plays as the clock whined down were plays to Sebastian Lindeblad.

The senior receiver had a 35-yard catch to get the Wildcats down to the Farmers’ 25-yard line.

Hurlburt hit Lindeblad for a 10-yard touchdown with 17 seconds left before halftime to give the Wildcats a 14-0 lead going into halftime.

A-West struggled on offense in the second half and a bad snap on a punt with under five minutes to play in the fourth quarter set Wheat Ridge up on A-West’s 41-yard line.

Coryell compared the victory over

A-West to the Farmers winning a conference title back in 2015 with a big win over Denver South.

Wheat Ridge (2-1) has two more non-league games against Centaurus and Liberty before starting 4A Jeffco League play against Chatfield on Oct. 10 at Trailblazer Stadium in Lakewood.

A-West has one final non-league game before heading into the tough 5A Metro West League play. The Wildcats are at the North Area Athletic Complex next Friday night where they face off against No. 7 Eaglecrest.

It will be the first of four 5A ranked teams A-West will play against over the next six weeks before the end of the regular season.

Jeffco golfers wrap up regular season on the links League’s best in regional competition this week

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

BROOMFIELD — The Class 5A and 4A Jeffco League individual medalist champions — Lakewood sophomore Max Lange and Evergreen senior Clayton Whiten — capped off conference play in style Tuesday, Sept. 17, at The Broadlands Golf Course.

Lange birdied two of his final three holes to shoot a round of 2-under, 70.

He edged Columbine junior Drew Duffy by a stroke to give Lange his third league title during the six-tournament conference schedule.

The sophomore finished with a 68.6 18-hole stroke average on his top-5 rounds that were counted in the overall conference standings.

“Last year I didn’t have the best scores, but this year I was pretty consistent in the high-60s and low-70s,” Lange said. “To play this well this year means a lot to me.”

Last year’s 5A Jeffco League champ Lakewood junior Ryan Liao placed fourth in the overall standings.

Ralston Valley’s tandem of junior Jack Larson and Gage Messingham placed second and third, respectively.

“I’m just much more confident right now,” Lange said of not making first-team all-conference last year as a freshman to winning the medalist title. “I played really well during the summer at tournaments. Coming into the high school season that really helped.”

The Tigers turned their attention to the 5A Central Regional tournament Sept. 23, at South Suburban Golf Course in Centennial. The 5A state tournament is scheduled for Oct. 7 and

8 at Pinehurst Country Club in Denver.

“We are pretty confident as a team right now,” Lange said before heading to regionals. “No matter where we go we are looking to get the team to state and play really well at state.”

Valor Christian won one of the closest 5A Jeffco team race in resent history. The Eagles, Ralston Valley and Lakewood were separated by just seven strokes in the finals standings.

Ralston Valley took second and took its deep squad to the 5A Southern Regional tournament Monday at Colorado Springs Country Club.

Valor went to the 5A Western Regional at Hyland Hills on Sept. 25.

One the 4A side, Golden mounted a comeback to win the 4A team title. The Demons — led by Chance Surdurapura and Grayson Flambures — took a six-stroke victory over Evergreen in SEE GOLFERS, P16

the overall conference standings.

“It means a lot, but I really wanted to win the team title too,” Whitton said after it was clear that Golden would edge out the Cougars for the 4A Jeffco team title. “That was in my head the last couple of holes. Going bogey-bogey wasn’t what I was looking to do.”

Despite the rough finish to his round, Whitton shot a 1-over, 73 to win his third conference tournament of the season and claim his first 4A Jeffco medalist title. Last season, Whitton finished second to teammate Nolan Miller.

Whitton has plenty of regional and state experience as he makes his final run. He was the No. 4 golfer for the Cougars when Evergreen was the 4A team runner-up at state in 2017.

“I feel like if everything comes together I have the ability to go super low,” Whitton said. “I’m going to try to go as low as I can to help the team out to give those young kids the experience of going to state because it’s fun.”

Evergreen juniors Jack Mitchell, Jake Dekoker, Jackson Green and Tanner Erlander all were first or second all-conference selections.

“Right now our goal as a team is to make state as a team. I need to play real well at regionals,” Whitton said.

“There is some stuff I need to do and work on. Hopefully at regionals we

Bald Mountain blaze west of Golden contained STAFF REPORT

According to the Jefferson County Sheriff ’s Office, as of 2:45 p.m. Sept.

22, the Bald Mountain Fire is contained.

Firefighters continued to work in the area on Sept. 23, as part of hot spot mop-up operations.

The wildfire, cause undetermined, burned 25 acres and closed U.S. 6 and triggered evacuation warning alerts to residents living in the Mount Vernon Genesee area.

The fire was spotted around 3 p.m. on Sept. 20, south of Clear Creek Canyon, near mile marker 267. Firefighters were soon on the scene, and reported the fire was only one acre at that time. within hours, even with repeated helicopter water drops, the fire had reached 15 acres by 6 p.m., and at least 17 acres by 8 p.m.

More than 140 firefighters from multiple fire agencies helped fight the

fire through the night and throughout the following days. Ralston Elementary School was used as the command center for fire operations.

No evacuations were implemented, but pre-evacuation notices were sent out.

U.S. 6 was closed west of Golden, due to fire concerns and to allow fire equipment to better access the northern flank of the fire. It was reopened the afternoon of Sept. 21.

The Beaver Brook trail network was closed throughout fire operations, as part of the trail route was within the burn area.

At the scene of the Bald Mountain Fire, Jefferson County Sheriff ’s Department spokesperson Mike Taplin said that the wet spring had contributed to a relatively uneventful fire season so far, but “the risk of fire has gone back to what it normally is, now that all that early-season moisture is gone.”
