LyBarger comesup bigBy Chris [email protected]
EDWARDS — Battle Mountain soccertook its No. 2 ranking in the state out for atest drive Tuesday night, and so far, so good.
The Huskies, who have never beenranked this high by The Denver Post, cameaway with a water-logged 3-1 win overSummit County on Tuesday at Edwards inthe first of what will likely be two critical 4ASlope meetings this fall.
Battle Mountain moved to 8-0 overalland 6-0 in the Slope, while handing Sum-mit (5-3, 4-1) its first league loss. The teamsmeet again in Farmer’s Korner on Oct. 9.
“It’s early days, but it’s a nice testament towhat we’ve done over the last few yearswith this group,” Huskies coach David Copesaid. “One of the things we talked aboutbefore the game is that it’s nice to be rankedwhen there are leaves on the ground. Butwe want to be ranked when there’s snow onthe ground.”
“We don’t want it to get to our heads andget cocky,” said senior striker Joe LyBarger,summing it up nicely.
LyBarger had a very big hand in this one,with a goal and two assists.
“We man-marked No. 6,” Summit coachTommy Gogolan said. “We knew he wasgood. He got good touches.”
Battle Mountain had two quality goals inthe first half, using their home pitch and itswidth to maximum advantage. Alex Trujil-lo chipped the ball up the left side to Rober-to Diaz, who had a perfect cross to LyBarg-er. No. 6 one-timed it past Tigers goalieNoah Glasco for a 1-0 lead. LyBarger fedDiaz on a beauty of a corner kick, and thelatter slammed it in to the back of the netlater in the first half.
Summit, however, did not go away. TheTigers kept building pressure in the secondhalf, and that got Peter Grotemeyer a penal-ty kick in the 64th minute. The Tigers seniorwent to his right and halved Battle Moun-tain’s margin to 2-1.
“I’m proud of them,” Gogolan said. “Theconditions were tough. We played withthem. I thought we dominated in the sec-ond half. The score doesn’t show that. Itwas unfortunate that they scored with, like,five seconds left. But Battle Mountain’s agood team.”
So’s Summit. The Tigers are 5-3, but theirnonconference schedule does them cred-it. Those three losses are to the Huskies(ranked No. 2 in 4A), Valor Christian (No. 8
in 4A) and Colorado Academy (No. 2 in the3A).
Glasco, a sophomore, was magnificentfor the Tigers in net, especially as condi-tions deteriorated in the second half — anyshot on goal was a serious adventure.
Battle Mountain iced the game on aLyBarger free kick to David Suarez, whocrashed into the box and pounced on theloose ball.
“It was a free kick from Joe,” Suarez said.“The goal keeper couldn’t handle itbecause of the rain. I just followed the shotand it made it through.”
Glasco, unfortunately, had to leave thegame after that sequence but was walkingoff the pitch under his own power after thegame. Gogolan said that Glasco would beready to go for Summit’s next contest.
Both the Huskies and the Tigers have Pal-isade next. Battle Mountain’s at Longs Parkin Grand Junction at 4 p.m. Thursday. TheBulldogs then come to Farmer’s Korner foran 11 a.m. game Saturday.
And while there’s a lot of soccer to gobefore the second meeting between theHuskies and Tigers next month, there was alittle peeking ahead after Thursday’s game.
“We know going back to Summit is goingto be a battle,” Cope said.

Ski & Snowboard Club Vail had a fewalpine athletes earn the rare opportunity totest their fitness skills at the Olympic TrainingCenter in Colorado Springs last weekend.
The U-14/16 championships last seasonhelped secure a training spot for fifty-twoU-14 athletes from the Rocky MountainDivision. Darlene Nolting, the RMD com-petition and development manager, organ-ized the camp for the athletes.
SSCV had 18 of the 52 athletes at the three-day training camp. Other ski programsincluded: Aspen, Cloud City, Eldora,Flagstaff, Loveland, Steamboat, Summit,Sunlight, Breckenridge, Telluride, Taos andWinter Park.
The athletes were tested on their motorskills, agility and strength. The campincluded talks with Olympic trainers aboutnutrition, positive mental reinforcement,and overall fitness.
“I never knew nutrition was so importantfor training for skiing,” said athlete Jake Dippy.
“It is a privilege to go there. Being in thatenvironment and seeing all of the Olympicathletes is inspirational to them,” said SSCVcoach Brett Borgard.
Fitness testing at the camp included “TheBeep Test,” 5-by-5 jumps and box jumps. TheBeep Test is a great test for alpine athletes asit measures maximum oxygen uptake. Thetest uses a pre-recorded beeping sound thatincreases in frequency. The athlete runs a 20-meter distance and progressively runs faster,keeping up with the beeps.
“All of the kids did extremely well. SSCV’sU-14 Breandan Keane had the most boxjumps in 60 seconds out of everyone in thecamp. It goes to show that these kids havereally been working hard to get in shape. Allof the kids learned a tremendous amountand were grateful to be a part of the pro-gram,” Borgard said.
SSCV athletes saw a wide variety of train-ing methods from U.S. athletic programssuch as gymnastics, rugby and weightlift-ing. By going to this camp, these kids got toexperience the best possible training meth-ods for the rapidly approaching ski season.
