Getting your player ready...
Columbine at Chatfield, Thursday, 7 p.m.:
Rival southwest-metro schools attempting to take over 5A’s Big 8. It’s of particular note this time — Chatfield is attempting to join Columbine among the elite.
Limon at Akron, Friday, 7 p.m.:
A nonleague offering between the programs that have won the last eight 1A titles, the last three by Akron. If you want to see a small-school game in 2009, this is the one.
Fountain-Fort Carson at Pine Creek, Saturday, 4 p.m.:
The high end of the Class 4A Pikes Peak League, a top-notch matchup between teams from the Colorado Springs area that’s sure to draw.
