Basketball season doesn’t start for another few months, but you wouldn’t know that based on this final score: Doherty beat Rangeview 83-55 on Friday night.
In football.
Doherty racked up 708 yards of total offense, and the two teams combined for 21 touchdowns. Spartans senior Julian Cooks rushed for 303 yards.
This comes on the heels of the crazy Zero Week game between Aspen and Middle Park where the teams combined for 130 points and made their mark on the record book.
Doherty scored more than 20 points in the first, second and fourth quarters, while Rangeview did it in the second and fourth quarters. Both schools play in Class 5A.
The 138 combined points are tied for the 12th-most in state history, and are the most scored at the big-school level since Palmer Ridge beat Air Academy 88-54 in 2014.
The two teams combined to score 48 points in the fourth quarter on Friday night, which is the seventh-most in state history.
