Tennis Takes 2nd at State, Soccer Continues Playoff Push

The girls tennis team had another impressive state run this year, finishing runner-up in the CHSAA 4A Team State Tournament on Tuesday! This is the third time in three years our Sun Devils have played in the championship match, earning the title in 2024 and taking second place last year—each time against Cheyenne Mountain.

The team also saw success at the individual state tournament in Pueblo last week, with Sofia ’26 and Drea ’29 winning No. 3 Doubles! Nora ’27 (No. 2 Singles) and Arwen ’27 and Sofia ’26 (No. 2 Doubles) finished state runner-up, while Dylan ’29 (No. 3 Singles), Hallie ’26 and Claire ’27 (No. 1 Doubles) and Maddie ’27 and Lily ’29 (No. 4 Doubles) all took third. Congratulations to the entire team for a fantastic season!

Our No. 1-seed girls soccer team is marching toward state, having shut out each playoff opponent so far—10-0 (KIPP Denver and Alamosa) and 6-0 (Delta). The Sun Devils take on No. 5 Jefferson Academy in the semifinals Thursday at 5 p.m. at UNC-Jackson Stadium in Greeley. A win would send the team to the CHSAA 3A State Tournament at Weidner Field in Colorado Springs on Tuesday, May 19. Good luck, Sun Devils!
