The Yoders are going to be talking about Saturday at family get-togethers for the rest of time.
The Resurrection Christian Cougars celebrate after winning the Class 4A boys basketball championship game against the Kent Denver Sun Devils 76-61 at the Denver Coliseum in Denver on Saturday, March 09, 2024. A year after falling in the Class 4A championship, Resurrection Christian won its first boys hoops title by beating Kent Denver, 76-61, at the Denver Coliseum. The Cougars did it behind head coach Ryan Yoder and his son, junior point guard Ty Yoder.
The game was fast-paced from the start, and the Cougars led 22-21 after one quarter despite 14 points from Kent Denver sophomore sensation Caleb Fay. Phillips had 10 in that quarter as the 5-foot-11 forward played much bigger than his size all night. In the final quarter, Kent Denver hit some big shots, but could never get close enough to make Resurrection Christian uncomfortable. The Cougars started consistently breaking the press that led to some fast-break buckets of their own. And when they got fouled, they continued to make their free throws. The Cougars were 24 of 28 from the stripe overall.
Kent Denver only led for a little over two minutes, late in the first quarter. Beyond that, it was all RCHS, which finished with a 36-24 advantage in points in the paint. Fay was outstanding in the defeat, dropping 25 points.
