It was state championship Saturday yesterday for high school basketball in Colorado. Grandview defeated Monarch for the 6A girl’s title 38-28 while Denver East raced past Fossil Ridge 82-61 to take home the 6A boy’s crown. Lack of height did in Monarch as Grandview’s 6′-4″ Sienna Betts dominated inside, scoring 20 points and grabbing 20 rebounds. Meanwhile, Denver East used a balanced attack to blitz Nick Randall and the Fossil Ridge Sabercats. In 4A action, Holy Family took home both state titles. The girls were a season-long #1 seed but the boys surprised a lot of observers, taking home the crown as the #17 seed. They never had a hone playoff game en route to grabbing the trophy.
