The Skiers, with only five swimmers competing, finished with 214 points, while Evergreen ran away with its second straight state championship with 372.5 points.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText\">Salida came in third as a team with 209 points, followed by Kent Denver (208), Durango (204) and Glenwood Springs (190).<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText\">This was Aspen\u2019s second-best finish at state, its best coming when it won the inaugural 3A state championship in 2017. AHS was eighth in 2018 and fourth in 2019.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText\">Aspen\u2019s best result Saturday came from the 200-yard medley relay team, which came second to Evergreen. That relay was made of freshman Lilly Huggard, sophomores Kayla Tehrani and Laila Khan-Farooqi, and junior Emily Kinney.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText\">The 200 free relay, made of the same foursome, finished third. Individual third-place finishes included Huggard in the 200 IM and Tehrani in the 100 fly. Tehrani also finished fifth in the 50 free.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText\">Other notable finishes include Khan-Farooqi in the 200 free (sixth) and the 100 free (eighth), Huggard in the 100 back (eighth), and Kinney in the 100 breast (ninth) and 200 IM (10th).<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText HeadLarge\">Basalt wrestling will send Lopez, Samuelson to state tournament<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText\">The Basalt High School wrestling team competed Friday and Saturday at its Class 3A, Region 1 tournament in Montrose, where it qualified two to the state tournament next weekend in Denver.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText\">Senior heavyweight Ernesto Lopez will return to state for the second straight year after going 3-0 in contested matches to win the regional championship. He pinned all three of his opponents.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText\">Also heading to state will be junior Ruben Samuelson, who was second at 170 pounds. He lost to Alamosa\u2019s Hunter Smith via a 6-0 decision in the final.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText\">Basalt\u2019s Jose Castorena finished sixth, with only the top four per weight class making state.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText HeadLarge\">Aspen boys basketball beats Delta, girls fall<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText\">The Aspen High School boys basketball team snapped a four-game losing streak Saturday with a 60-51 league win at Delta, which fell to 7-10 overall. AHS improved to 11-8 overall and 4-5 in Western Slope League play.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText\">The Aspen girls lost 71-12 at Delta (14-3) on Saturday to fall to 3-14 overall.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BriefText\">Aspen has one final league game remaining, a Thursday home date against Basalt to close out the regular season.
