Down 10 points with about six minutes left in the game, Cherry Creek coach Clint Evans was starting to lose faith.
But his players weren't.
Little by little Jana Van Gytenbeek and Kacee Kyle helped the Cherry Creek Bruins fight back. And in the final five seconds of the game they pulled ahead and closed it out.
With a 51-49 win over two-time defending Class 5A champion Grandview, Cherry Creek won its first girls state basketball title on Saturday.
"I think we were down 10 with six minutes left," Evans said. "We were just hoping for something good to happen then. I think we got Jana a corner 3-pointer and that was some momentum."
