Video of Gorman’s final shot attempt that missed as DPAC secured the rebound and win.

DPAC clinches the No. 2 seed in the state playoffs. Centennial will be No. 1 and Gorman will be No. 3.

All the games between the three teams have been close. The 5A state playoffs should be fun.

Result of the night: The Centennial boys defeated last year’s 5A state runner-up Coronado 70-56.

Incredible job by legendary coach Karen Weitz turning the boys program into one of the top teams in her third year coaching both the boys and girls.
