Teeing up for success
Consistently sending players to state championships in recent years, the Moffat County golf program saw Aron Jennings qualify for the second year in a row in October. On the same subject : The World Baseball Classic airs exclusively on the FOX network.
He shot a 160 two days in the tournament at Denver’s Pinehurst Country Club, tying for 37th in the field of 84. This is his second time in the state, improving both his score and placement from the previous season, where he scored 168 and tied. for 50.

The Bulldogs also placed seventh as a group with Jayden Evenson scoring a personal-best 89 and Kolten Vasquez 113. Later in the year, Jennings was also offered the opportunity to compete in the 2023 Scottish Junior Golf Invitational at St. Andrews Golf Club next summer.
Keep kicking
The tough streak over the past few years for Bulldog boys soccer continues this season, although not without its bright spots. The squad went 1-13-1 with their best game against Caprock Academy, which Moffat beat at home 5-0 and tied 3-3 on the road.
The young team with nary a senior saw its fair share of losses with a shutout, but the opposing coach also recognized the spirit of the program, with All-Conference Honorable Mention for Zeke Alcantar.
Swing away
The MoCo girls were an integral part of another Colorado Northwest team during the fall, joining the Rio Blanco County cohorts for the playoff-bound Meeker softball team. Craig’s Reagan Hafey, Dylan Herndon and Teryn Carter were regular components in the varsity lineup.
The Cowboys won the Western Slope League title last season, although they finished third in the conference this year, they are postseason contenders.
Meeker fell 4-0 to Denver’s Thomas Jefferson in the opening round. Hafey and Meeker’s Brea Garcia were each named honorable mention All-State by the CHSAA and competed in the All-State Senior Game for Colorado Girls Sports Coaches, with Garcia pitching alongside Hafey at second base.
Two of Meeker’s primary pitchers this fall – Garcia’s ERA was 5.12 with 56 strikeouts and Hafey’s was 5.20 with 36. Hafey also led the team in batting average at .534 with 31 hits and 20 RBIs.
Ever in the running
In several years of rebuilding for Bulldog cross country, runners are still making their mark in the final weeks of fall.
MCHS boys earned a state berth with third place as a group in October’s Region 1 meet in Delta.
In addition to Owen Gifford finishing as the individual runner-up in the event with a personal record of 17:10 for the 5K race, Ian Trevenen took eighth and Boden Reidhead 14th to help throughout the placement.
The complete team – including Carson Laehr, Garrett Mercer, Karson Fedinec, and Travis LeFevre – went to the state meeting in Colorado Springs, with the 16th group among 20 teams, led by Gifford taking 75th, Reidhead 77th and Trevenen 93rd.
The Bulldog girls runners placed seventh in the regional race — led by Josefina Kuberry in 30th — but they will lose just one senior and will field a stronger team next fall.
Pigskin prowess
It was a season rife with injuries for MoCo football, yet the gridiron grit showed throughout the entire schedule.
7-3 record was full of monster wins – 60-14 over Aspen, 48-6 versus Coal Ridge, 41-0 Grand Valley – with determined defense and opportunistic offense. However, some of the greatest excitement in the game is very close.
Maybe it’s the Homecoming energy or the anticipation of the Western League Class 2A Opener, but no game felt as exciting as the 29-26 victory of the gun, as the seniors had countless shining moments over the Bears.
While the Dogs’ conference championship hopes were dashed by Basalt in a 34-22 loss and their playoff run ended sooner than expected with a 38-21 loss to The Classical Academy, the numbers speak for themselves.
Johnny Lopez led the league in interceptions with six, Michael Voloshin tied for the league high in sacks with five. Also, quarterback Evan Beaver came in midseason to rank second in the league in passing yards at 880, replacing Cort Murphy, who ranked fourth in the league in tackles with 82.
As the top scorer in the league with 23 touchdowns in his final season among other points, Evan Atkin is second in the 2A West in rushing yardage (1,102) this season, one of the many accomplishments that won him the All-State Second Team. Fellow seniors Catcher Jackson and Isaac Vallem also earned All-State honorable mention for their blocking as center and right guard, respectively, on the offensive line.
Netting big wins
With a playoff drought of more than a decade, the Moffat County volleyball program had its first winning season since 2007. The Bulldogs were on point throughout the season, finishing fifth in the Western Slope League and 11-10 overall.
A seven-game win streak early fall helped them build up a good reputation. However, it was clutch moments throughout the year that got the Dogs that extra step into the regional round of the playoffs. Ruby Short leads the team in kills at 133, and Alexis Jones is ranked fourth in the league in assists (354), while Lizzy LeWarne is second in the league in blocks (91).

While winter sports have just started again, there are already some bright spots for Bulldog athletes in the final weeks of 2022.
