The #roadtostate continues tomorrow night in Lakewood. The Jaguars from Jefferson Academy host the Denver Christian Thunder in the CHSAA 3A Soccer State Semifinal at Trailblazer Stadium. Kickoff is at 7:30pm.

Following a dramatic 1-0 win against Colorado Academy, the Jags now face a fellow Metro League team that has won four in a row and scored half of its season total goals in that span.

So how did Denver Christian get here? The 21-seed is on what some may call a cinderella run. They opened with a 6-3 win over 12-seed Liberty Common and followed it up with a surprising 4-1 win over 5-seed The Classical Academy. The Thunder then lit up 13-seed Mitchell. 7-4. While this run can seem a little daunting, fret not, Jaguar Nation. In the regular-season meeting between the Jags and Thunder, the Jags put up four goals to take the win on Oct. 15. This was one of seven league losses for the Thunder. With the Jags playing at the top of their game, they're going to be hard to beat.

Tickets for tomorrow night's game are $9 for K-12 students and seniors. $12 for adults. No passes except 2026-2027 CHSAA-sponsored passes. No Metro passes. No student passes. No cash sales at the gate.

As with all athletic events, sportsmanship is at the foundation of being a Jaguar. Spectators who choose not to adhere to CHSAA spectator rules will be asked to leave the game.
