Defending champion Fleming is back, looking for its seventh title in 11 years. The Wildcats are not the top seed, that honor belongs to unbeaten Kit Carson, who fell to Fleming in last year’s finals. The top three teams in the field combined to win 212 of 220 sets played this season.
The bracket opens with eight pool matches on Friday and concludes with four more first round battles and the semifinals leading up to the state championship match at 7:00pm Saturday night. All matches can be seen live at www.NFHSNetwork.com.
Colorado Preps will post scores on our volleyball scoreboard both days with updates after every set.
