GAME STORY: The opening Friday night of football across Colorado came with high expectations. But the ending to the Regis Jesuit and Valor Christian game became opening night magic. copreps
Regis Jesuit, the No. 4 team in the Class 5A preseason CHSAANow rankings, needed overtime, but secured a 23-17 win over No. 2 Valor in an absolute thriller in Highlands Ranch. Tight end Grayson McPherson scored the game-winning touchdown on the Raiders’ first overtime possession, and showed to many why the Raiders are capable of making a run this year.
The Eagles got off to a good opening drive, as they made quick work to get into the red zone. However, the Raiders made the first big play of the night, with Regis’ Joshua Harvey recovering a fumble on the 12th play of the drive at the Raider 2-yard line. In the second quarter, the Raiders recorded their second turnover of the game as Carroll was hit as he threw and Valor returned it deep inside Regis’ territory. Nine plays later, Gabe Sawchuk scored from a yard out to give Valor a 10-7 edge.
In the last quarter, Valor Christian had a long, 7-play drive, but it ended with an interception in the end zone by Josiah Harris for the fourth turnover of the night.
