Week 10 marks the final week of the football regular season for Class 5A, 4A, 2A, 1A, 8-man and 6-man. Several league championship have already been claimed, but there are more in play this week and with the 3A regular season wrapping up next week, league championship scenarios are now in play for that classification.
Here are the league title scenarios for each class:
Class 5A
CENTENNIAL: Cherry Creek is the champion by beating Grandview. Grandview earns the title by beating Cherry Creek if Eaglecrest also beats Arapahoe. If Grandview and Arapahoe win, then those two and Cherry Creek share the crown.
FRONT RANGE NORTH: Fairview has wrapped up the league championship.
FRONT RANGE SOUTH: Erie has clinched the title.
METRO: Ralston Valley has won the league crown.
METRO NORTH: Overland is the league champion and will be the only playoff entrant from the conference.
SOUTH METRO: Mountain Vista is the outright champion by beating Castle View. Castle View is the league champion by beating Mountain Vista if Valor Christian also loses to Rock Canyon. If Castle View and Valor Christian both win, then those two will share the top spot with Mountain Vista.
SOUTHERN: Legend starts the week alone in first and the Titans are crowned champions by beating Regis Jesuit. Regis becomes the champion by beating Legend if Pine Creek loses to Fountain Fort Carson. If Regis and Pine Creek both win, those two clubs share the crown with Legend.
Class 4A
DENVER METRO: Northfield sits alone in first and is the outright champion with a win over George Washington in the final week. George Washington can also earn the crown by beating Northfield if Thomas Jefferson also falls to Montbello. Should George Washington and Thomas Jefferson pick up victories, the Patriots and Spartans share the championship with Northfield.
I-25: Grand Junction and Sand Creek are both unbeaten in conference play and meet in the final week. The winner is the league champion and earns the lone playoff berth from the league.
NORTH 1: Monarch is the league champion.
NORTH 2: Broomfield is the league champion.
SOCO 1: Pueblo West and Montrose are both 4-0 in league play and 9-0 overall. Their head-to-head matchup will determine the league champion and possibly the No. 1 overall playoff seed.
SOCO 2: Palmer Ridge has clinched the conference championship.
SOUTH METRO: Dakota Ridge has wrapped up the league title.
Class 3A
METRO: Lutheran basically clinched the league championship with their win over Holy Family. They need just one more win to secure the crown and it will come this week as they will get a forfeit win over Littleton. That will keep the Lions one game up on Holy Family and Standley Lake and they’ve already beaten both challengers.
NORTH 1: Thompson Valley and Pomona share the conference lead at 3-0 with Roosevelt a game back in third (2-1). Thompson Valley plays Roosevelt this week and Pomona in the final week so there are still several scenarios that could happen. Pomona already has a win over Roosevelt.
NORTH 2: Windsor and Mead share the lead at 3-0 and both have a two-game edge on the rest of the division. The Wizards and Mavericks face off this Friday and the winner is the league champion.
PIKES PEAK: Pueblo South and Discovery Canyon share first place as both are 3-0. Lewis-Palmer is alone in third at 2-1. South and Discovery Canyon don’t face off until the final week so neither can clinch with wins this week. Lewis-Palmer must beat Pueblo South this Friday to remain in the title discussion.
SOUTHERN: Pueblo East (3-0) leads Pueblo Central and Pueblo County (both 2-1) by one game. Pueblo East plays Pueblo County in the final week so the Eagles can only clinch this week by beating Coronado if the Hornets also lose to Canon City.
WEST METRO: Green Mountain and Conifer are both 3-0 with a one game edge on Evergreen (2-1). Green Mountain and Conifer play this week and the Rams can clinch the league title with a win since they moved past Evergreen last week. Conifer wins the conference crown by winning this week and next week against Evergreen.
WESTERN SLOPE: Eagle Valley (3-0) and Palisade (2-0) share the conference lead with Glenwood Springs (1-1) in third. Eagle Valley clinches the league title by beating Palisade on Thursday. Palisade becomes the league champion with a win only if Glenwood Springs is also beaten by Steamboat Springs. Palisade and Glenwood meet in the final week while Eagle Valley concludes their conference schedule this Thursday.
Class 2A
EAST: Elizabeth is alone in first and wins the title outright by beating Kent Denver this week. Kent Denver can only win the title outright by beating Elizabeth along with Strasburg also losing to Bennett. Should Kent Denver and Strasburg both win, those two teams share the title with Elizabeth.
INTERMOUNTAIN: Tons of possibilities entering the final week but Montezuma-Cortez still controls their championship hopes. They are tied with Alamosa in first (both 3-1) but the Panthers are the league champs by beating Bayfield since they own the head-to-head tiebreaker over Alamosa. Alamosa wins the title by beating Pagosa Springs if Bayfield also upsets Montezuma-Cortez. There is also the possibility of a four way tie. That happens with wins by Bayfield, Pagosa Springs and Gunnison (play Salida). Those results would leave Cortez, Alamosa, Pagosa Springs and Gunnison with identical 3-2 league marks.
NORTH: Three teams are 3-1 in league play as Berthoud, Wellington and Eaton enter the final week tied for first. The key game in the final week has Eaton against Berthoud with the loser eliminated from the title chase. Wellington is favored to beat Valley in Week 10 and if that happens, then the Eagles are the league champs if Eaton beats Berthoud. Berthoud is the league champion with a win over Eaton regardless of any other results since they have the head-to-head tiebreaker over Wellington.
PATRIOT EAST: Sterling is the league champion by beating Weld Central. Weld Central can the outright title by beating Sterling if Academy also loses to Brush. If Academy and Weld Central both win, the Wildcats and Rebels are tied with Sterling for the conference title.
SOUTHEAST: Woodland Park has clinched the league championship.
METRO: The Classical Academy has secured the conference title.
WEST: Basalt is unbeaten in league play and is the champion by beating Aspen in the final week. Aspen can earn the title by beating the Longhorns if Delta also loses to Coal Ridge. If Aspen and Delta both win, the Skiers and Panthers will share the top spot with Basalt.
Class 1A
FRONTIER: Forge Christian is the league champion.
LEAGUE SIX: Platte Valley and Highland are both unbeaten in league play and collide this week to determine the champion.
NORTH CENTRAL: Wray is the league champion.
SOUTH CENTRAL: Centauri and Monte Vista are both unbeaten inside the conference and they face off this week to determine the title.
