There’s a reason everybody hates Creek. With our 248 state titles, and our less than humble attitudes, we’re an easy common enemy. But according to Maxpreps, a huge source for high school sports news, rankings, and scores, Creek had the best athletic program in the U.S. for the 2024-25 school year. These are the greatest success stories from last year.
Football
Winning five titles in the past six years, Creek football is ranked first in Colorado and 53rd in the nation. Last year’s win over Legend took the team to 14 titles all-time, with the hopes of winning more in the future. “You stay humble, you come back to work next week,” head coach Dave Logan said. “You enjoy the win this weekend, and you get to work.”
Field Hockey
With a brand new head coach last season, field hockey ranked first in Colorado, and 22nd in the nation, and broke a 17 year drought, winning Creek’s third ever state title.
Boys’ Golf
After 43 years without winning the state championship boys’ golf finally won again after shooting three under par in the championship round. A great season got the Golf team ranked first in Colorado, and ninth in the nation. “They dedicated themselves to getting better each day, and it paid off,” boys’ golf head coach Dustin Neil said.
Girls’ Swim
Girls’ swim and dive not only managed to win their fifth state title in a row, taking them to 31 state titles all time, but also broke the 400 free relay state record, with a time of 3:21.52.
Baseball
Despite having a new head coach, boys baseball managed to win the state title, securing back-to-back titles, both over Regis Jesuit. This marks their 10th title, and puts them as number one in Colorado and number 65 in the nation. “There’s always pressure when you care deeply about something and want to succeed,” baseball head coach Joe Smith said.
Boys’ Tennis
Tennis continued its legacy as Creek’s most successful sport, with 47 total titles, winning their fifth state championship in a row. Boys’ tennis added remarkable stat sheet towards the MaxPreps Cup, finishing the season with a record of 20-2.
Boys’ Swim
Diving into their 14th title and their second in a row, the boys’ swim and dive team ranks first in Colorado and 25th in the nation. Finishing with a 7-0 record, the swim and dive team had a dominant season.
Boys’ Soccer
After 14 years the boys soccer team finally won a state championship. The win marks their seventh title and ranks them first in Colorado and 14th in the nation. They had a 18-1-1 record and scored a total of 67 goals over the course of the season. The team hopes to continue this success. “We gotta continue working and getting better,” head coach Whilmer Barrera said.
Boys’ Lacrosse
Boy’s Lacrosse won their eighth title last year, marking them as the best in Colorado and fourth in the entire nation. They had an undefeated season with a 19-0 record. The Bruins were above-average scorers, too, with an average of 14 points per game compared to the national average of nine. “There’s more of a desire to win,” lacrosse head coach Matt Bocklet said.
