2023 CHSAA Season Preview: Boulder HS

The Colorado high school season is nearing quickly, and we're here to cover it. Over the next several weeks, leading up to opening day, we'll publish our team previews ahead of the 2023 spring season, touching on programs spanning all state classifications, leading into a countdown through the official PBR Colorado Preseason Power 25 Rankings.

Team: Boulder
League: Front Range
2022 Record: 11-12 / 5-6 Conference
Classification: 5A
Head Coach: John Whitehead
Years at the Helm: 2

OUTLOOK:
Boulder resides in the Front Range League in Colorado and they are looking to get back to the playoffs in 2023. This program lost 9 total seniors after last spring and will be looking for new pieces to step in and produce. Coach John Whitehead loves the youth in his program right now as they are hungry to compete at the varsity level and show some real upside. If seniors; Daniel Balderas-Lujan, Caden Calcao, David Kimberly, and Chase Lewis can help carry this team early, we could see Boulder in the 5A state playoffs at the end of the season.
