MCHS recently released its fall sports schedules including football, volleyball, boys soccer, boys golf and cross country.
Colorado State High School Rodeo Association has yet to announce its full fall schedule, though a rodeo for high school and middle school competitors will take place Sept. 9 through 11.
Golfers start the earliest with a schedule that has a few alterations from last year, starting with a visit to Cedaredge, a course the team has not played in several years, followed by a round at Grand Valley’s Battlement Mesa. Familiar venues such as Eagle Vail, Gypsum Creek, Tiara Rado, Dos Rios and other regional sites are also in store, while MCHS will host its home meet Aug. 22 at Yampa Valley Golf Course.
Cross country will see the fewest changes from its usual schedule, starting out with the Cheyenne Mountain Stampede Aug. 26, the team’s lone home gathering Oct. 1.
Both volleyball and boys soccer will see a shift in the size of their conferences as the 3A Western Slope League brings in Delta for both sports, Cedaredge for volleyball and Grand Junction’s Caprock Academy for soccer, which replaces Rifle, a 4A team for the new season.
Each Bulldog team will start the season with away games in Steamboat Springs — Aug. 25 for volleyball and Aug. 30 for soccer — with volleyball hosting a non-league game with West Grand Aug. 30 and soccer playing its first home game Sept. 10 against Grand Junction’s Central High School.
Football will also see a shake-up with the formation of a 2A league that has yet to be named, currently known as Conference F, which carries over five of the six teams previously in the Western Slope North League: Moffat County, Aspen, Basalt, Coal Ridge and Roaring Fork.
While Battle Mountain makes the move to 3A, Steamboat replaces the Huskies in the sixth slot, the Sailors scheduled to serve as the opponents for this fall’s Homecoming game Oct. 14.
The season will commence with an Aug. 26 game in Rawlins, Wyoming, followed by a non-conference slate at home that includes Ridge View Academy, Delta and Resurrection Christian, the latter two schools also new to 2A.
An emphasis on junior varsity and C-Team will be heavy in the early season, with the younger set hosting Meeker and Glenwood Springs on the gridiron in the first week alone, also seeing Rifle, Resurrection Christian and the rest of the league’s JV players.
