by Kevin Shaffer on Aug 20, 2010 9:00 PM
Regardless of the results, Class 3A will crown a new football champion in 2010 because Valor Christian is no longer a member of the division. The Eagles, who flew by Steamboat Springs 41-14 to win their first ever title last November, jumped up to Class 4A so a new winner is guaranteed.  Valor Christian's win in the finals capped off a fantastic playoff race in Class 3A. For maybe the first time in history, four unbeaten teams reached the semi-final round and all four of those teams are hoping for similar success this year.
