Shutterfly. Blabberize. Glogster. iMovie.

The Steamboat Springs School Board was excited Monday night when a group of six elementary school teachers briefed them on these new tech and Web tools being deployed in local classrooms.

Students become PowerPoint literate in the first grade, the teachers said, and they are able to storyboard documentaries in iMovie in fourth grade.

And as they followed along on iPads and a SmartBoard inside the Strawberry Park Elementary School’s media center, School Board members said they want to spend more time witnessing the new tools students and teachers are using in the classroom.

Last year, they just talked about them.

“It’s really great to see these things come to life,” Board President Brian Kelly said after Strawberry Park art teacher Erin Kreis showed how her students take pictures of their artwork on an iPad and digitally alter them.

The pictures then can be emailed to parents.

Monday night’s meeting at Strawberry Park was the first of a series of meetings the

STEAMBOAT TODAY

School Board will continue tour next month School Board continued from 1 board is planning to have at all of Steamboat’s campuses in the coming weeks to witness how technology is being used in classrooms. The board also is meeting with teachers and administrators to discuss Unified Improvement Plans, reports that outline how school staff plans to help students meet certain curriculum guidelines.

Monday’s technology briefing led the School Board into a brief discussion about whether teachers and the community would want them to continue approaching the Steamboat Springs Education Fund Board for grants that help keep class sizes small, or if more grants in the future should fund more new technology and hardware in classrooms.

“It’s an ongoing discussion we’re all going to be involved in,” board member Denise Connelly said. “Would you

rather have a few more kids in the class but be able to have the technology, or is that a tradeoff we don’t want to make.”

The elementary school teachers responded that they would like to see more of their students have access to iPads in coming school years.

But a couple of them said they don’t want to see new hardware come at the expense of small class sizes.

The School Board will continue its technology tour next month at Steamboat Springs Middle School, followed by a visit to Steamboat Springs High School in December.

Other meeting highlights ■ Enrollment Finance Director Dale Mellor told the School Board that the district is projecting a funded pupil count of 2,260 students, up 42 students from last school year. Mellor added the total is 22 more students

than the district budgeted for.

The district currently has an overall enrollment of 2,321 students, up from 2,284 students last school year. School districts do not receive full funding for their kindergarten and part-time students.

This year’s increase in fulltime students is projected to equate to about $140,000 in additional revenue.

All three Routt County school districts are projecting increased enrollment this school year.

■ Challenge Fund The School Board signed off on nearly $40,000 worth of grants coming from the inaugural Steamboat Springs Challenge Fund. The grants soon will equip students at Soda Creek and Strawberry Park elementary schools with new iPads, robotic Lego kits and a traveling planetarium.

The money also will introduce some new curriculum into classrooms.

The new fundraising drive netted nearly $52,000 for the elementary schools this year.

STEAMBOAT TODAY

ave you begun, like I have, to wonder if the wild animals of the Yampa Valley are conspiring to reclaim Steamboat Springs?

I had mixed emotions Sunday morning about rescuing two juvenile raccoons from my Dumpster. After all, they were certain to return.

Then on Monday morning, I read that humans can contract ringworms from raccoon waste and I knew I had to do more to discourage my little masked invaders. Sorry Rocky, you’re an unwanted houseguest.

If it isn’t bears in this town, it’s raccoons acting as if Dumpsters are luxury condos with a meal plan. Or even more concerning was the bear that hopped into the rear hatch of a Steamboat resident’s car Monday while the groceries were being unloaded. I guess if I had to, I’d choose raccoons in my Dumpster rather than a bear in my 4Runner.

From the biggest animal — moose — right down to some of the smallest backpack-eating chipmunks, wild critters have begun to assert themselves around here.

I’ve been extra careful the past four weeks to keep my garage door closed. This is the time of year when a chipmunk previously has taken up residence in my heated garage. It’s happened to me twice in the past three years.

How bad could that be?

The first cute rodent chewed

Tom Ross STEAMBOAT TODAY

a gaping hole in the top lid of a daypack in order to get at a granola bar. The second became so desperate for food that it chewed up a window screen.

As for those juvenile raccoons that were huddled in my Dumpster the other morning? In reality, I rescued them from a prison they could not have escaped for at least another week when the Dumpster will begin to fill.

The raccoons can climb into the trash enclosure with ease.

But once they squeeze through the gap between the lids of the Dumpster, they have no chance of climbing back out its smooth, steel interior.

I could have left them there to gorge on chicken bones and tortilla scraps until the garbage truck hoisted them into the sky and deposited them in its cargo hold. But I didn’t.

When a neighbor brought my attention to the plight of the juvenile raccoons I grabbed a 6-foot-long piece of scrap wood.

I lowered it into the Dumpster, leaning the upper end against its side to create a ramp.

Next, I plan to redouble my efforts to dissuade animals from

snacking on my neighborhood’s garbage and sprinkle more ammonia inside and outside the Dumpster. I’ll even resort to using synthetic coyote pee if I have to. But I won’t repeat what I did Sunday, which was to spritz one of the departing raccoons on the rump with ammonia.

When I wrote a column last month about the bear who is able to break into our bear-proof Dumpster, several readers, including a Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife employee, responded by recommending that I keep a spray bottle of ammonia handy to coat the Dumpster and the trash inside. Advice taken.

Of course, ammonia is prevalent in animal urine, and a company called Shake-Away is marketing a product that consists of coyote urine granules that it touts as being a strong repellant to raccoons. Raccoons identify the coyote scent in the predators’ urine, according to the manufacturers, and a good whiff of it is enough to cause them to beat feet in fear of being eaten.

I’m at a loss to explain the unusual numbers of wild animals occupying Steamboat Springs the past few years. But it’s not too farfetched to suppose that the record snowpack of spring 2011 followed by the extreme drought of 2012 has impacted their natural range to an extent that they are doing what they have to do to survive.

Just stay out of my Dumpster, would ya?

Building permits get boost Tom Ross

STEAMBOAT TODAY

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

Buoyed by the issuance of the $21 million building permit for the Casey’s Pond Senior Living campus in June, the value of building permits issued in Steamboat Springs and Routt County year to date continues to outpace 2011. But the Casey’s Pond permit for the project at the corner of U.S. Highway 40 and Walton Creek can’t overshadow the fact that there has been a modest bump in homebuilding here compared to 2011.

Year to date building permit valuation is $67.6 million, compared to $38.4 million in 2011.

Even if one were to subtract the anomaly of the big Casey’s Pond project, 2012’s numbers would be ahead of 2011 by a little more than $8 million.

There was just one permit for a single-family home issued in Steamboat Springs and two others in Routt County in June.

However, the September report issued by the Routt County Regional Building Department shows the pace picked up in the third quarter. The city and county together saw 22 singlefamily home permits issued in the third quarter.

There were six permits with a combined value of $5.3 million issued for new homes in the county last month, produc-

By the numbers September building permit numbers for the city of Steamboat Springs Combined residential permit valuations: $3.5 million Single-family home permits: 2 Duplex permits: 2 Dwelling remodel permits: 27 Other remodel permits: 11

ing a third-quarter combined valuation of $6.9 million on 12 permits for new homes. In the city, there were two new permits in September with a combined value of $1.13 million, bringing the third-quarter total to 10 permits for new homes in Steamboat.

Routt County Building Official Carl Dunham said this year’s third-quarter numbers represent a marked improvement over 2011 but still pale in comparison to what the city and county experienced throughout the past two decades in terms of housing starts.

“In the city of Steamboat Springs last year we had nine (single-family permits issued) from January through September and just four in the third quarter,” Dunham said. “In 2012 we’ve seen 16 (year to date) and 20 in Routt County. Our average since 2001 is 84 in the county and 28 in the city. So, we’re way off. But it does feel better this year.

“I think we’ll make our budget this year (in fee revenue), and we’ve been running the depart-

ment at a deficit since 2008.”

The average number of thirdquarter, single-family home starts in Steamboat since 2001 is 11. In Routt County that number is 34.

September 2012 even saw the issuance of permits for a duplex building in Rocky Peak Village in Steamboat Springs, something that has become a rarity here. Duplexes have been missing from the scene since the real estate market reversed course in late 2008. Also of note recently was the issuance of a building permit for a home in Graystone on the Green, the first in the subdivision adjacent to Rollingstone Ranch Golf Club.

The issuance of a building permit to Steamboat Lake LLC for a home on Placer Place near Hahn’s Peak Village with a permit value of $4.13 million also stood out. Permit values do not represent the retail value of the completed home.

The local housing market isn’t done for 2012, Dunham said. He sees 15 to 20 singlefamily permit applications still in the hopper for this year, and somewhat to his surprise, a couple of parties have come to his office already talking about taking steps so they can build in 2013. It’s unusually early for those conversations to have begun, he said.

Integrity of our elections Carole L. Milligan, M.D. For the Steamboat Today

Questioning the integrity of our electoral process is all the rage among conservatives during the past four years, and the visit by Catherine Engelbrecht of True the Vote to the Steamboat Institute last week was no exception. True the Vote’s ostensible mission is to improve the integrity of voter identification by aggressively cleaning up registration roles, questioning the matching of voter registrations and voter identification at the time of voting with a platoon of trained volunteers and promoting legislation that would require photo IDs when voting. Because Colorado is a swing state, Engelbrecht was here to garner support for her organization and recruit volunteers for the upcoming election.

The genesis of True the Vote was in the witnessing of what Engelbrecht viewed as irregularities at the polls that she saw as a poll watcher in Harris County, Texas. While she denies any political party bias, the organization targets areas that have lower-income voters

and voters who are younger, such as at colleges, where matching up identification and residence is more challenging.

True the Vote does it aggressively by putting in objections with poll workers as they are trying to process people successfully to provide a smooth and free election process.

In a country where about 60 percent of eligible voters actually register and vote — and where there has been little well-documented voter fraud — it seems that making sure someone does not impersonate a dead person who still is on the voter registration rolls, or that the unit number on an apartment is described the same way by the utility company and the post office, just isn’t the main issue.

Our country has a history of “having to win the vote,” moving from men who owned property, to all white men, to black men and other minorities, and eventually to women, so that today the vote may not be denied to citizens, born or naturalized, age 18 or older, solely on the basis of “race, color, prior condition of servitude,” sex, or failure

to pay a poll tax or other tax. However, there still are some state restrictions regarding the need to register a number of days prior to voting or on whether felons may vote or on how ballots are counted. During this evolution, we have also had a history of voter intimidation at the polls, especially in the South.

If True the Vote targeted people with homes in two states who could conceivably double vote and didn’t focus on things like six registered voters at one address (much more likely in a poor neighborhood), I would be more likely to think that it wasn’t just one more group trying to disenfranchise voters who live in less stable life circumstances or who have more hindrances to obtain and pay for the requisite documents, and are less likely to be sympathetic to True the Vote’s tea party roots.

Integrity also means assuring that any eligible voter who wishes to exercise his or her civic obligation to vote can do so without third-party interSee Milligan, page 9

letters to the editor

Casinos and hypocrites In reading many letters to the editor, one might be led to think every economy in the valley is wonderful. But then you turn the page and read that school athletic programs need funds, small county communities can’t afford law enforcement, the city of Steamboat Springs is contemplating cuts to services, the airlines need help filling seats, the county can’t afford to maintain gravel roads, and there are many locals searching for jobs where there are none. Which page is correct?

I read we must maintain our smalltown, Western, family environment. When was the last time you were at the mountain or walked down main street? How many true Western-looking folks did you see, versus city dudes of all types?

Our family types and traditionalists feel it is acceptable to have a medical marijuana dispensary on every corner.

This acceptance, which is contrary to federal law, is prohibited in many Front Range cities and no doubt is contributing to increased substance abuse, particularly among the juveniles in our community. Do these dispensaries bolster and maintain our family-oriented Western way of life? I think not.

With all this in mind, we now read how the construction of a casino in rural Routt County will destroy our community — despite it being a project that will supply immediate construction jobs as well as long-term employment opportunities. I’ve read and heard people say there only will be low-pay-

ing jobs. The people stating this must be some special folks, because if you have no job, any job looks pretty appealing.

These folks never would work there in the first place.

Exactly how does this casino destroy our community? It gives adults a source of entertainment besides reggae and jazz music in every club; it gives tax dollars to our community; it gives new employment opportunities; it provides business opportunities for existing businesses; and it’s another draw to our touristbased economy.

This facility would supply a recreational opportunity to an adult segment of our community. This adult group easily can be monitored and controlled upon entry. Who in our community has the right to tell me, as an adult, I should not be able to visit a casino? Shouldn’t that decision be mine, not some community do-gooder? The inconsistency here in accepting and allowing marijuana to be dispensed and not be followed once it leaves the dispensary versus the controlled environment of a casino for adults is hypocritical, in my opinion.

Jack Horner

Steamboat Springs

Who benefits?

I attended the meeting in Steamboat where the proposed Hayden casino was discussed and I came away with the feeling that the Sleeping Giant Group is driven more by potential profits to be made from

off-casino ventures than its desire to better serve the Routt County community.

As a follow-up to the meeting, I recently contacted Sleeping Giant Group and received a response from one of its principle partners, who confirmed that Question 13 under “Frequently asked questions” on the group’s website accurately spells out the intent: “It is anticipated that additional development will occur at or very nearby the casino site, including an entertainment venue large enough to attract world-class acts and shows, multiple food service venues, and a 200-room hotel, along with indoor and covered parking.

“These venues will provide opportunities for locally based investment and ownership, and will produce tax revenue for local and county governments through property taxes, sales taxes and other legislated taxes and fees.”

The response I got from Sleeping Giant Group indicated it will manage those development opportunities.

At the meeting we were told that only about 40 acres of the approximately 150 available would be used directly for the casino. It seems to me that the stated Sleeping Giant Group development opportunities offer a potential cash windfall to Sleeping Giant Group and that these opportunities would directly compete with other businesses in nearby communities, further diluting their gross incomes. How is this a benefit to our community?

Clerk’s Office is here to help with voting ference. The objective of any organization that sincerely espouses integrity in voting should include efforts to make it possible for eligible voters to register and to exercise the right to vote, including through early voting and mail voting.

I think that we need to expand the voter rolls and encourage those who are eligible to express their opinions through their vote. Perhaps we should consider adopting national standards for voter

identification and issue a lowcost national identification card, so that what is needed to register is the same wherever you live. A further improvement in the electronic age would be a means to record every vote received in real time, which helps to assure that no one can vote more than once.

For the purposes of this 2012 election, be aware that groups like True the Vote may have people at your polling station, and that their objections will increase the workload of those working in the polling place as they try to resolve

issues on the spot. Bring identification if you need it, don’t allow yourself to be intimidated, and don’t get frustrated and leave if you have to wait for issues that need to be resolved for others. Be sure to exercise your right to vote! If you vote by mail, and it is the first time, be sure to send in a copy of your identification, and always follow the directions carefully. If you have any questions about what you need, call the Routt County Clerk and Recorder’s Office at 970-8705556. They are here to help you exercise your right to vote.

a deposit of $25 in advance when the county determines a request would result in more than 15 minutes of work.

The Colorado Open Records Act allows records custodians to charge as much as 25 cents per page for photocopies of public records.

However, the law also states: “If, in response to a specific request, the state or any of its agencies, institutions or political subdivisions has performed a manipulation of data so as to generate a record in a form not used by the state or by said agency, institution, or political subdivision, a reasonable fee may be charged to the person making the request.

Such fee shall not exceed the actual cost of manipulating the said data and generating the said record in accordance with the request. Persons making subsequent requests for the same or similar records may be charged a fee not in excess of the original fee.”

Here come the Orionid meteors Bears surprise D woman STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

Sarah Woodrum was hoping to finish unloading the back of her Toyota 4Runner after a trip to the grocery store. Instead, she was confronted by three black bears.

The bears helped themselves to the contents in the back of Woodrum’s sport utility vehicle in a driveway on Meadowbrook Circle on Monday before she caught them in the act.

“I’ve never had a bear in my car before,” Woodrum said. “It was a first for me.”

Woodrum had just returned from the store after buying groceries for the family who lives in the residence. She took one bag inside the home, and when she went back outside to grab another, she saw the mother bear and her cub hanging out in the yard of the home.

“I thought I had better shut the back of the car, but when I looked over I noticed that there was another bear,” she said.

A second cub had jumped into the back of the SUV and was eating a bag of sweet potato fries.

“I yelled at him to get out and clapped my hands,” Woodrum said. “But I don’t think he wanted to get out.”

Woodrum retreated inside the home and called police and wildlife officials. When she returned, all three bears were in the yard.

They left by the time officers arrived.

Woodrum said the car was not damaged, and most of the groceries still were in the car where she had left them.

The number of bear encounters in and around Steamboat Springs has been on the rise of late.

Wildlife officials say bears are becoming more visible as they seek food in preparation for their winter hibernation.

JIMMY WESTLAKE/COURTESY

A fiery meteor, or “shooting star,” streaks past the constellation Orion in this photo taken in 2008.

around the sun, its orbit can fill with dusty debris, like a river of dust in space.

The Earth crosses Halley’s Comet’s dust river twice each year, once on May 5 and again on Oct. 20. When one of these dust particles plows into the Earth’s upper atmosphere at nearly 150,000 mph, it incinerates in a brief but brilliant flash of light called a meteor. Cometary dust grains are so small that you easily could hold 1,000 of them in the palm of your hand.

October’s Orionid meteor shower will peak between midnight and dawn on the morning of Oct. 20. A single observer with dark, clear skies might see one to two dozen meteors, or “shooting stars,” each hour.

The October meteors that Halley’s Comet sends our way are called Orionid meteors because they appear to fan out

from a point in the sky near the familiar star pattern of Orion the Hunter. Orion doesn’t rise above our eastern horizon until about 11 p.m. in late October, so don’t expect to see many meteors before midnight. You’ll see Orionid meteors in every part of the sky, but they will all point back to a common origin near the bright star Betelgeuse, marking Orion’s shoulder, high in the southeastern sky around 4 a.m.

The closer to dawn you watch, the more meteors you will likely see. This is because the Earth rotates us more in the direction of Orion as we near sunrise. Watching Orionid meteors perhaps is the next best thing to seeing Halley’s Comet itself.

Comets are like big, dirty snowballs that hover near the outer edges of the solar system in perpetual cold and dark. But every so often the gravity of the sun tugs a comet into the warm inner regions of the solar system. As the snowball approaches the sun, the solar heat vaporizes the top layers of ice, releasing clouds of steam and millions of tiny dust grains that were trapped in the ice. The combined pressures of sunlight and the solar wind blow the gaseous vapors away from the snowball, forming the comet’s graceful, flowing tail and filling the comet’s path with dusty debris.

8-man playoffs inspire Aspirin

C

all me a Monkee, because I’m a believer.

That is, I almost always find a way to believe in local high school teams that I spend time covering. That’s one of the reasons I’m so surprised whenever I stumble across a score like Joel Reichenberger one from STEAMBOAT TODAY Friday night.

A Steamboat Springs High School football team that utterly was helpless for more than two seasons? That rout of Battle Mountain didn’t surprise me.

Hayden losing to West Grand in 8-man football? That did.

So what does it mean?

Plain and simple, it may have just been one game and four points, but losing that game was bad news for the Tigers. Winning their six-team division is a huge advantage, and not just because it might mean a tiny trophy. In this circumstance, first place gives a team a comparatively good chance at making the 16-team, 8-man football postseason playoff bracket.

Allow me to explain. You probably should sit down for this. And grab someone with a statistics degree because to contemplate 8-man football fates is to risk madness.

The top four teams from the Central Division — which includes Hayden, Soroco, West Grand, Vail Christian, Rangely and South Park — will face off against the top four teams from a Front Range division, the Nos. 1 vs. the Nos. 4 and the Nos. 2 vs the Nos. 3.

That division likely will be won by No. 3 Elbert, 6-0 and a state quarterfinalist a year ago, or by No. 8 Simla, 5-1 on the season and a state semifinalist last year. Kiowa, also 5-1 and ranked sixth in the state, could still win, but is more likely to See Reichenberger, page 14

JOEL REICHENBERGER/STAFF

Jimmy Weltzheimer leads off for the Steamboat Springs High School football team during an endurance drill Monday. Weltzheimer scored a touchdown with a fumble return Friday as the Sailors beat Battle Mountain to improve to 3-3.

Prep sports scores from the weekend Joel Reichenberger STEAMBOAT TODAY

Steamboat football (3-3) ■ Beat Battle Mountain, 43-0

What happened: Brad Ryan scored the first of his two touchdowns on the opening drive for Steamboat, the first drop in what would be a torrent of touchdowns.

The Sailors excelled in all aspects of the game, getting a punt return touchdown from Skyler Kauf and a fumble returned 91 yards for a touchdown by Jimmy Weltzheimer.

What does it mean: Victories via rout two weeks in a row? What is this, 2009? Now the Sailors have the chance to show they’re more than just off the bottom of the heap. They close out the season with a Murderers Row collection of opponents that have a combined record of 19-5. Reaching .500 midway through the season is a great accomplishment for this rebuilt program. Finishing .500 against that lineup really could send the signal that

PREP SPORTS ROUNDUP Steamboat is back.

What’s next: Steamboat plays Palisade at home Friday.

Hayden football (4-2) ■ Lost to West Grand, 32-28

What happened: A couple of turnovers may have been the deciders in a game where every possession mattered. Hayden led 21-12 at half and 28-20 after that, but it couldn’t stop a methodical West Grand attack. When working to either extend the lead or eventually to retake it, the Tigers were set back by turnovers.

What does it mean: West Grand still is king of the mountain in Northwest Colorado 8-man football. Hayden, meanwhile, still has plenty to play for. A trip Saturday to South Park should help ease the pain, but the showdown against Vail Christian looming in two weeks will be critical.

What’s next: Hayden travels to play at South Park on Saturday.

Soroco football (4-2) ■ Beat South Park, 48-6

What happened: Soroco spread the ball out and found plenty of room to roam for the first time in three weeks.

Nic Paxton rushed for 290 yards and threw for another 80 while Ian Palyo ran for 98 yards.

What does it mean: It means relief. Soroco was able to bounce back from two painful losses. The game was a must-win for the Rams, who hope to finish in the top four positions in the division, thus earning a cross-divisional game and a crack at the state playoff bracket.

What’s next: The Rams play at Rangely on Friday.

two losses were bad news for the Sailors, in part because they came against two of the league’s weaker teams. Steamboat beat Summit in three games several weeks ago but Saturday lost to the same team in four.

What does it mean: Steamboat is now 3-5 in the Western Slope League and its chances of making the playoff cut — likely the top three in the league — are shrinking.

Six matches remain this season and there’s little remaining margin for error. The team needs to find offensive production from someone other than Feeley.

What’s next: Steamboat plays at 6 p.m. today at Rifle.

Steamboat volleyball (7-8) Hayden volleyball (3-12) ■ Lost to Battle Mountain, 3-0 ■ Lost to Summit, 3-1

Scores from this weekend’s prep games Roundup continued from 12 go well.

What does it mean: It was only about 10 days ago that the Tigers were looking as if they turned a corner and had momentum. That momentum is a thing of the past, however, and getting it back tonight against a talented Meeker squad will be an uphill battle.

What’s next: Hayden plays at Meeker tonight.

“It was a great race,” Ramstad said. “Everyone ran a real solid effort and stuck to their race plans.”

What does it mean: Coaches put the team through its final tough workout of the season Monday as they began molding it for the looming regional and state meets. Now is the time of year to be racing the best, and Ramstad said the squad accomplished just that at Aspen.

What’s next: The team runs Thursday in Rifle.

■ Second at regionals

What happened: The Sailors qualified all seven entries in the regional tournament for the state tournament and finished second, behind Aspen, in the region.

What does it mean: Regionals are there to choose the players who will head to the state tournament, and in that the Sailors were as successful as they’ve ever been. The second-place finish to Aspen snapped a 14-year winning streak at the tournament, however, so the news Saturday was somewhat bittersweet.

What happened: Coach Kim Reeves said things came together for the much-needed win against Vail Christian. “Stuff is starting to click,” she said. “It was a great game.” She also said the squad played well despite the loss to Vail Mountain, and that only a few miscues kept it from victory against North Park.

What does it mean: Soroco has played better recently, but it finally got to add another actual win to the moral victories the team has accumulated.

“We really needed it, that’s for sure,” Reeves said. “Plus, we get to play North Park again, so hopefully we can beat them next time.”

What’s next: The Rams have the week off before playing at home Saturday against Meeker.

half penalty kick to help send the Sailors to a crucial win against Palisade. Alex Alfone put away an insurance goal a few minutes later. Buchner had two goals in the game, and Peter White scored one.

What does it mean: Beating Palisade was pretty sweet. Not only did it flip the score from a 4-2 loss to the Bulldogs earlier this season, it moved the Sailors one step closer to a playoff spot.

What’s next: Steamboat plays Moffat County at home Thursday.

Rams will be playing for their playoffs lives Reichenberger continued from 12 finish second or third because it already lost to Elbert.

No matter how the chips fall, they will bring very tough matchups for three Central Division teams.

Pikes Peak Christian, 4-2 overall but 1-2 in its division, has been on both sides of lopsided games all year and looks likely to finish fourth in the Front Range division. No offense to the Eagles, but they

would seem to represent a bit of a dropoff from the top three teams in their division.

Hayden still can cobble together some advantages for that cross-divisional game by securing second place and the resulting home game. They have to win what should be a snoozer this weekend against South Park, and in two weeks a stiffer test against Vail Christian.

a good chance at home against one of the Black Forest Division big dogs. I also believe they’d rather play Pikes Peak Christian, with whom they share a common opponent this season. Pikes Peak trailed Belleview Christian at half before winning 52-44. Hayden beat Belleview Christian, 70-24.

The volatile nature of the Central Division renders any chance of the Tigers finishing first both remote and intriguing.

The main problem — after, ya know, last week’s loss to West Grand — is Vail Christian’s 30-6 loss to Rangely last weekend. The Saints entered undefeated but couldn’t handle the frequently defeated Panthers. That means if Hayden is to win out, Vail will have two losses and can’t play a part in a three-way tie for first. Hayden loses a tie with the West Grand Mustangs, thus Hayden has to hope West Grand loses its next two.

Of course, it’s entirely possible the Mustangs could lose their next two. They play Vail Christian, a team that already has confounded me more than once. Then, they play Soroco.

The Rams will be playing for their playoff lives this weekend against Rangely but are as dangerous as any team in the league when they can protect their quarterback.

But it’s also entirely possible West Grand won’t slip up and that now that it has the easiest path to that No. 1 seed, it will hang on for dear life. Here’s why: West Grand started the season 0-3 and it lost lopsided games to each of the three scary teams on the other side of the bracket, Kiowa, Elbert and Simla. Maybe the Mustangs learned important lessons about toughness, perseverance and will power in those matchups. Or maybe they learned you do everything in your power not to play Kiowa, Elbert and Simla until you absolutely have to.
