Colorado football’s leading 5A rusher in action tonight
The most productive running back in Colorado 5A football this season will hit the field tonight for a first-round playoff game.
Fort Collins’ Jack McKeon finished the season as the classification’s leading rusher (by over 270 yards) and top scorer (23 TDs). He was also our Blue Federal Credit Union Football Player of the Week.

Timnath may have locked up first playoff berth
The Cubs finished the regular season on Nov. 6, crushing Northridge 62-6. That win wrapped up the program’s first-ever winning season with a 6-4 overall record, 3-2 in league play.
It should be enough for Timnath to make its playoff debut in the team’s fourth season since the school opened in Aug. 2022. As of Friday afternoon, Timnath is No. 14 in CHSAA’s seeding index, firmly inside the 16-team 3A field.
