Coach Jenkins said of Alex, “I have been working with Alex since he was a 7th grader. It has truly been one of the most fulfilling things to see him go from an underutilized weapon on his youth team in 7th and 8th grade to one of the states top quarterbacks who everyone knows will be a division, 1 player. I could not be more proud of Alex.”

“It was a cold, snowy day in mid-January, and Alex Padilla rocked a hoodie, sweats and a beanie as he went through his progressions, snap after snap, slinging footballs through the flakes in preparation for a challenge that lay 10 months ahead. That challenge is now here, as the Cherry Creek junior quarterback led the Bruins to a 34-21 first-round victory over Ralston Valley on Friday night with the Class 5A state tournament’s toughest sledding still ahead, starting with a quarterfinal showdown against undefeated Eaglecrest next week.”
