1A baseball championship game scheduled for Saturday

DENVER — The Class 1A baseball championship game, which had been postponed from its original date on Thursday, will now be played on Saturday.

The game will be at 6 p.m. at All-City Field in Denver, according to CHSAA assistant commissioner Bert Borgmann, who oversees baseball.

Dove Creek and Granada will vie for the title. The two teams came to an agreement to reschedule the game to Saturday.

The 6 p.m. time was selected, in part, to allow Granada’s track athletes to complete their events at the state track and field championships. The start time is somewhat fluid, Borgmann said, to allow those Granada athletes time to finish at track and make the 20-minute drive from Jeffco Stadium to All-City. 

Of course, weather may be an issue. In the event it does interfere, the game will be reevaluated at that point.
