  • Amme, Columbine has their way...

    LAKEWOOD — Everybody loses sometimes. It's just a matter of how people deal with it whenever they lose. Dakota Ridge had a tough time accepting its 18-10 loss to Columbine on March 10 at Trailblazer Stadium.
    With one second to go in the game, Lady Eagles senior Amy Franks was given a penalty for dangerous play. She was then ejected from the game for vehemently disagreeing with the call. Dakota Ridge coach Kimberly Peyrouse declined comment after the game and wouldn't allow anyone on the team to comment either.

  • Ball finally bounces Russell,...

    LITTLETON — It’s not like Evergreen didn’t have it chances earlier. It did. But it took a free kick and subsequent Kylee Russell goal to finally put an end to Littleton’s winnning streak against it.
    Russell’s goal in the 62nd minute proved to be the game’s only score as the Lady Cougars toppled host Littleton 1-0 in its season opener at Littleton Public Schools Stadium on March 10. Evergreen snapped the Lady Lions’ three-game winning streak in the series.

  • START OF A NEW ERA

    Tyson Butler, no matter what happens from here on out, will forever go down as a part of Dakota Ridge history. And it only took the Eagles sophomore 23 seconds to do so.
    Before March 10, Dakota Ridge High School has never played a boys lacrosse game much less hosted one. But not only did the school host its first game, but it was against fellow first-year program Clear Creek.
    And Butler, a sophomore attacker, punched home the first of a bevy of goals scored by Dakota Ridge in a 15-1 victory.
