League Information
Pine Creek competes in the Colorado Springs Metro League (CSML) which is a league comprised of the 5A schools in the Colorado Springs and Pueblo areas: Pine Creek, Rampart, Doherty, Liberty, Fountain Fort Carson, Vista Ridge, and Pueblo West.
The winner of the CSML automatically advances to the 32 team 5A state playoff bracket, and all other teams may qualify based on the CHSAA RPI points system. The overall seeding of the 32 playoff teams is based on a 50/50 merger of the RPI system and the MaxPreps points ranking. Once in the 32 team bracket, it is single elimination (just like a March Madness college basketball bracket), so the eventual State Champion will have won 5 consecutive games. The higher seeded teams host the first and second round of the playoffs. The Quarterfinals, Semifinals, and Final are all played at predetermined neutral venues (usually Quarterfinals at Englewood HS, Semifinal at the University of Denver soccer stadium, and the Final at the Switchback’s stadium here in Colorado Springs)
