CHERRY HILLS VILLAGE, Colo. — Two of the top-ranked boys basketball teams in Class 4A met for a big Metropolitan League matchup Tuesday night.
Eagle Ridge Academy, which is ranked No. 1 in this week's CHSAA rankings, traveled to No. 4 Kent Denver for a big road test.
Both teams held leads and went back-and-forth, but ultimately it was the Sun Devils who prevailed with a 76-73 victory over the Warriors.
"It was a really close game. I'm glad we pulled it out," freshman Caleb Fay said. "(The win) says we're a good team. We're looking to win state, so we're on track to do that."
Kent Denver improved to 9-2 overall with a 3-0 mark in Metropolitan League play with the win. Eagle Ridge Academy falls to 7-2 overall, 1-1 ML.
