Updates

Class 4A girls: No. 1 Holy Family (23-2) vs. No. 9 Peak to Peak (21-4)

9:11 a.m.: Wow! Triple Wow! It’s raining 3’s for Holy Family. Gracie Ward banks in a 40-footer at the buzzer and the Tigers lead the Pumas, 24-15 at the half. Tigers have made 6 of 15 3-pointers. — Patrick Saunders 

9:04 a.m.: Holy Family is 5 of 9 from downtown and they lead the Pumas 21-10. We’re talking way downtown. Sophomore Enyiah Contreraz has made three 3’s. — Patrick Saunders 

8:55 a.m.: Quite a contrast early on in this game.  The Pumas are playing an old-fashioned post-up offense, feeding the ball inside to 6-foot-5 junior Alexandra Eschmeyer. Holy Family is trying to spread the floor. Eschmeyer already has six points (including a nice hook shot), but Enyiah Contreraz drills a 35-foot, 3-pointer at the buzzer for Holy Famil.y We’re tied, 10-10. Good game.  — Patrick Saunders 

8:40 a.m.: The third and final day of the Great 8 has arrived at Denver Coliseum. First up: A matchup between the defending Class 4A girls champions, Holy Family, and upstart Peak to Peak, led by Stanford commit Alexandra Eschmeyer. — Matt Schubert
