On Monday,
State Representative Dianne Primavera welcomed the 3A and 4A girl's state high school basketball championship teams and the 4A state wrestling champion to the floor of the Colorado House of Representatives. All hail from Broomfield, the Representative's hometown.
After introducing the teams to fellow House members, Rep. Primavera joined the 4A champion Broomfield High School Eagles for photos. The Eagles, who are led by head coach
Mike Croell, have the historic distinction of bringing back-to-back state championships to Broomfield High.
Next, Rep. Primavera joined
Gabe Gomez and Broomfield High administrators, including principal
Ginger Ramsey. Gabe won the 4A boy's 112-pound wrestling championship this past March.
Finally, Rep. Primavera joined head coach
Ron Rossi and the 3A champion Holy Family Tigers. This year marked the first time the Tigers have won the state championship.
"With all these champions from Broomfield, it's pretty crowded out here," Rep. Primavera quipped on as they crowded onto the House floor this morning. "This is a great day for Broomfield athletes, especially the ladies."
