Best In State: Jana Van Gytenbeek Talks State Titles & Stanford
Romi Bean, denver.cbslocal.com, January 20, 2020
Jana Van Gytenbeek is the reigning Class 5A Player of the Year – and that’s just the one honor in a long list of accolades for the senior point guard at Cherry Creek High School.
In the 2019 5A State Championship Game, Van Gytenbeek hit a floating bank shot in the final seconds of the game to break a tie with the heavily-favored Grandview Wolves. The shot helped lift Creek to its first ever girls basketball state title.
“To be part of that team was the coolest thing ever. We all wanted it. We’ve always wanted to do it for Creek and for our community,” Jana said.
After game-winning shot in state championship last year, Cherry Creek’s Jana Van Gytenbeek is primed for more big moments
Kyle Newman, denverpost.com, January 12, 2020
Long before Jana Van Gytenbeek hit the game-winning, floating bank shot in the waning seconds of the Class 5A championship last year, the point guard was already forecasting her basketball prowess. On a random court in the mountains. At age 7.
Van Gytenbeek was on winter break with her family in Buena Vista at the time. She, her older brother Carter and her father, Tony, shoveled snow off the cracked concrete court at a nearby elementary school, and Van Gytenbeek went to work schooling Carter, then 12, on the art of shooting.
“Their court was practically in the middle of nowhere, mountains all around, and the wind’s really blowing, too,” Carter recalled. “I’m making shots, getting a little hot, and she’s making shots, matching me shot-for-shot through the wind and the cold and a rim that made you miss if you hit it.
“That’s when I started to know she was going to be really good. Like, really, really good.”
