Saturday Results

In the first of CHSAA's 4A semifinals, No. 1 Palmer Ridge pulled away from No. 4 Broomfield, 38-14, thanks, in part, to a 14-0 third quarter that sealed the game away. Palmer Ridge will advance to the 4A State Championship Game, where they'll pursue their first state title since their 2017-2019 three-peat.

Their opponent in the state championship will be No. 2 Erie. Erie defended home turf against No. 3 Montrose in a close 25-22 victory. Erie led 15-0 at the half and then survived a late surge from Montrose to advance. Erie is chasing their only football state championship outside of their 1997 1A title.
