ARVADA — Madison Tenney, for most of the 2012 girls golf season, has been Evergreen’s most consistent player. And while her play was anything but consistent at the 4A Metro West Regional it was enough to qualify her for next week’s 4A state tournament.
The Evergreen sophomore shot a 95 on May 14 at West Woods Golf Course, just making the cut for state, which is scheduled for May 21-22 at Boomerang Golf Course in Greeley. She was the next-to-last player of 16 individual qualifers not on the regional championship team to make it in the field.

GRANBY — Austin Allen scored both of Clear Creek’s runs, but the Golddiggers dropped a 24-2 decision in their regular-season finale at Middle Park on May 1.
Clear Creek (1-19 overall, 0-9 3A Frontier League) ended the season on a 12-game losing streak.
Allen, Kenny Larson, Morgan Foelsch and Zak Ball each had hits for Clear Creek.
Middle Park was led by Cort Brennan, who went 2-for-2 with a pair of doubles, three RBIs and two runs scored. Six other players also had two hits and Middle Park had 15 overall.
 

Clear Creek’s losing streak stretched to 10 games with a home doubleheader loss to Sheridan on April 28.
The Golddiggers surrendered 28 hits in a 32-8 setback in Game 1. Then  in Game 2, Sheridan added 20 more hits in a 27-14 shootout victory.
Justin Miller went 8-for-9 and drove in nine runs, while Gino Estrada drove in seven runs for Sheridan. The Rams scored in every inning but the fifth in both games.

LAKEWOOD — Winning a boys lacrosse conference championship is uncharted territory for Columbine. It had never happened before. And though the Rebels knew what was on the line when they played Evergreen on April 25 at Trailblazer Stadium, they also knew it wouldn’t come easy.
And it didn’t. But Columbine stayed the course and a third-period flurry would be all it would need to make history.
