Rangers impressive in debut

L-P wins in straight sets over Pueblo West

By Danny Summers

sports@ourcoloradonews.com

MONUMENT - Playing without its starting middle blocker, the

Lewis-Palmer volleyball team turned in a solid performance in its

season opener against Pueblo West on Aug. 30.

“You always look good against each other,” said Lewis-Palmer

coach Susan Odenbaugh. “You never know what you need to work

on until your first competition.”

The Rangers won in straight games, 25-18, 25-20, 25-23, over one

of the state’s top Class 4A teams in a match that took place in front

of about 200 fans at Lewis-Palmer.

“Pueblo West has always been a really good team,” Odenbaugh

said. “They usually go undefeated until districts or regionals.”

Rangers senior Claire Felix - a 6-foot-6 middle blocker who has

committed to UCLA - was forced to watch from the bench while she

sits out the first 11 matches of the season because of the transfer

rule. She played at The Classical Academy last season.

Junior Carson Nicodemus (5 kills, 1 block) filled in admirably for

Felix, forming a solid front line that included 6-1 sophomore Alexa

Smith (17 kills, 9 digs, 1 block), 6-1 senior Mickey Moss (11 kills, 2

blocks) and junior Jenna Kirchhoefer.

Moss missed all of last season due to injuries.

The Rangers also got strong performances from sophomore out-

side hitter Nicole Montgomery (6 kills), senior libero Cat Svendson

(9 digs) and freshman libero Tyler Fugate, who converted 80 per-

cent of her serves - including three aces - and scored a team-high

15 points.

“Tyler had a fantastic

freshman debut for us,”

Odenbaugh said. “(Pueb-

lo West) had a strong out-

side that was hurting us.

She stepped up in a pres-

sure situation and served

very well.”

The Rangers’ game

plan included limiting

the effectiveness of Pueb-

lo West 5-11 sophomore

middle hitter Allegra

Shippy.

“We had a good block-

ing scheme against Ship-

py,” Odenbaugh said.

“She can really hurt you.”

The only obvious

downside for the Rangers

was 18 hitting errors and

14 serving errors.

“That gave (Pueblo West) 32 points,”

Odenbaugh said. “That’s way too many.

We need better consistency with our

serves and we have to get better in our

shot selection.”

Lewis-Palmer has a busy schedule

this week with matches at Rampart

(Tuesday) and Legend (Thursday).

The Rangers host the 9-team Lewis-

Palmer Tournament on Saturday. The

field consists of Valley (2011 3A state

semifinals), Montrose, Brighton, Co-

nifer, Thompson Valley, Broomfield,

Gunnison and Pueblo West. Every team

is guaranteed four matches.

had an impressive first game of the

season on Aug. 27.

�e right-hander threw six strong

innings in relief and drove in four

runs to lead the �under to a 12-10

victory over host Falcon.

Surface ended the game in dra-

matic fashion when she got Falcon’s

Moira Wells to fly out to center with

two runners on base.

Discovery Canyon fought back

from a 10-7 deficit with five runs in

the top of the seventh.

Emily Selby had an RBI single,

and then No. 9 hitter Shyloh Grover

tripled in two to tie the score at 10.

Shelby Hetzel knocked in the go-

ahead run, while Surface hit a sacri-

fice fly for the final run of the frame.

�e Rangers trailed 5-3 heading

into the bottom of the seventh.

shutout innings in relief. She had

seven strikeouts while allowing no

hits and no walks.

Bears off to fast start on the diamond

Palmer Ridge double-up on opponents

By Danny Summers

sports@ourcoloradonews.com

WOODLAND PARK - The Palmer Ridge

High School softball team headed into last

weekend’s Don McCall Tournament with a

head of steam. The Bears were victorious

in their first four games, defeating their

opponents 51-24.

“I’ll have half my season done by (Sept.

3),” Palmer Ridge coach Randy Gillette

said with a smile. I need to have some time

with the girls.”

The Bears have found early success

thanks to a potent offense, heads up base-

running and a solid defense.

On Aug. 29, they scored five runs in the

first inning at Woodland Park and were

never threatened during 14-9 victory.

“Our girls are starting to see the game

and understand it,” Gillette said. “They’re

seeing the whole field in front of them.

I want them to get to the point where we

take the coach out of the game.”

Palmer Ridge is off to its best start in its

fifth year as a program - third under Gil-

lette. The Bears were 13-9 last year and

6-15 in 2010. And while Gillette sees him-

self as a teacher, he expects his players to

already know the basics.

“I tell the girls `I don’t want to teach you

how to throw the ball and where to throw

it to,’” Gillette said. “‘I don’t want to teach

you how to run. I want you to know to al-

ready know those things and work on do-

ing them better.’”

The Bears pounded out 15 hits against

Woodland Park and led 9-1 after three in-

nings.

A pair of sophomores had four hits and

three stolen bases apiece on the day - lead-

off hitter Jennifer Slaughter and No. 9 hit-

ter Ciara Richardson (a team-leading .688

batting average).

Richardson, a left-handed second

baseman who can turn the double play

with pin-point accuracy, also showed tre-

mendous awareness on the base paths by

taking third base in the second inning as

Woodland Park was making adjustments

to its defense.

“The girls are working on doing the little

things it takes us to be successful,” Gillette

said.

Right-hander Katie Smith - the only se-

nior on the squad - was slated to be Palmer

Ridge’s starting pitcher against Wood-

land Park, but she was unable to take the

mound after getting hit in the elbow on a

successful pickoff attempt in the bottom of

the first.

She left the field in pain, but stayed in

the game and played shortstop. She col-

lected two doubles and pair of RBIs in four

at bats.

“She worked through the pain,” Gillette

said. “I asked her if she wanted to go back

out there and she said `Yes.’”

Sophomore Madysen Kearns filled in

admirably for Smith in an emergency start.

She went all seven innings, allowing nine

runs and 16 hits.

She stuck out six and walked three while

throwing 147 pitches.

Bears sophomore catcher Jennifer Tar-

water had two hits and four RBIs, while

junior Taylor Klee added two hits and two

RBIs.The Bears’ only game this week is

Thursday at home against Elizabeth.

“Our kids are hungry,” Gillette said.

Goeas ready to Volunteer

Former L-P star signs with Tennessee

By Danny Summers

sports@ourcoloradonews.com

Former Lewis-Palmer High School

star running back/linebacker Colton

Goeas has accepted a scholarship of-

fer to play football with the University

of Tennessee.

Goeas, 17, is a senior at St. Louis

School in Honolulu, Hawaii - an all

boys Catholic school. He left Lewis-

Palmer following his sophomore sea-

son with the Rangers to move to Ha-

waii with his family.

Last year, playing linebacker full

time for St. Louis, Goeas recorded

120 tackles and six quarterback sacks

while helping the Crusaders to a 6-4

record.

St. Louis plays its home games at

Aloha Stadium.

“I fell in love with (Tennessee) and

all the coaches,” Goeas said. “I just

want to be part of that tradition.”

Goeas (6-foot-3, 241 pounds) was

being recruited by several big-time

college programs. Among them were

Colorado, Ohio State, UCLA, Oregon,

Kansas, Arizona State and Washing-

ton State.

Goeas was helped in his decision

to attend Tennessee by his father, Leo

Goeas - a former offensive lineman

who played nine seasons in the NFL,

starting 81 of 111 games he played in.

He finished his career with the Den-

ver Broncos in 1998.

“There was a lot of interest from

Ohio State and Kansas,” Leo said.

“Those coaches were calling every

day. The main reason Colton chose

Tennessee was so that he could play

in the SEC (Southeastern Confer-

ence).”

Leo has owned a home in Black

Forest since 1996. His oldest son,

Matt, played football for Lewis-

Palmer and is a 2006 graduate of the

school. Matt also played for Portland

State and Colorado Mesa. Leo said

that Matt is preparing to enter the

Honolulu Police Academy.

Colton enjoyed a stellar sopho-

more season for Lewis-Palmer in

2010, rushing for more than 1,500

yards and 20 touchdowns, while

leading the Rangers to a 9-3 record

and the quarterfinals of the Class 3A

state playoffs.

But his true position

was linebacker, which is

one of the many reasons

the family moved back

to its native Hawaii.

“I like being on the

defensive side and de-

livering the blows in-

stead of receiving them”

said Colton, who runs a

4.6 second 40-yard dash

and bench presses 365

pounds. “I think I was

meant to be a lineback-

er.”Colton said he en-

joyed playing foot-

ball for Lewis-Palmer.

He believes there is a

slightly higher level of

play in Hawaii.

“It’s more physical

over here,” he said. “The

size of the players are a

little bigger. I needed to

meet them at their level.

I’m training way harder

over here. Heavier lifts.

More complex lifts.”

Leo understands the

challenges - on and off

the field - that come with playing col-

lege football. He is a sports agent - his

company is called “On the Line” - fo-

cusing on linemen.

“I’m trying to keep Colton ground-

ed,” Leo said. “Not to succumb to

the temptations that come in college

with a big-time program. Impress

upon him that it’s a great opportu-

nity, a major opportunity, to do good

and bad. You have to make wise deci-

sions who you hang out with and who

your friends are.”

QUICK HITS

Falcons picked sixth

�e Air Force Academy football team has

been picked to finish sixth in the Mountain

West Conference this season in a poll that was

released last week at media day.

�at is a quite a difference from 2011 when

the Falcons were the trendy selection at No. 3.

�e Falcons have just five returning starters

from a team that went 3-4 in conference a year

ago. �e only time Air Force was picked lower

in the conference under Calhoun was his first

season as head coach in 2007.

�ey were picked seventh that year, but

finished second and made a Bowl game.

Among the players Calhoun is looking

to replace is quarterback Tim Jefferson, the

school’s all-time leader in wins for a quarter-

back. Also graduated is Asher Clark, the Falcons’

second all-time leading rusher.

�e Falcons have just two players on the

all-conference preseason team this year. Place

kicker Parker Herrington is an all-American

candidate, and outside linebacker Alex Means.

Air Force, which has played in five con-

secutive Bowl games, opens training camp on

Aug. 3, but it has only 23 preseason practices

before its first game.

�e predicted order of conference finish

this season is: Boise State, Nevada, Fresno

State, Wyoming, San Diego State, Air Force,

Hawaii, Colorado State, UNLV and New

Mexico.

Prep sports about to begin

�e fall high school sports season officially

begins Aug. 6 when boys golf can meet as a

team. �e remaining fall sports teams all have

an Aug. 13 start date. Boys and girls cross

tics, boys soccer, so�ball, boys tennis, volley-

ball and spirit.
