Winners of 54 straight matches, top ranked Lewis Palmer is the overwhelming favorite to land a second straight state championship and their fourth crown in five years. Valor Christian, Holy Family and Niwot are all tournament experience and those three along with eight others hope to be the program that ends the Rangers dominance on the 4A level.
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.
