Week 1 of Class 5A/4A hoops was called "action-packed" with the early non-conference matchups and opening tournament action. Fans were not disappointed.
A late fumble recovery gave Valor Christian second life and they used it to claim the Class 5A state football title with a 29-26 win over Pomona Saturday at Sports Authority Field.
Valor Christian reestablished their spot atop the high school football rankings in Colorado by avenging their only loss to a team within the state this season.
