High school football: Week 8 recap
Notable performanceChase Randall, Monticello
Randall, an absolute monster on defense, racked up an astounding 17 tackles for the Buckaroos in their hard-fought loss.
Flexing some muscles
Ogden and Bear River met for the 62nd time Friday night, and perhaps surprisingly Ogden won for the second straight year. The Tigers beat Bear River 20-14 last year and won again 35-12 on Friday. Both teams now sit at 1-2 in the Region 11 standings with two games remaining.
Notable performance
Josh Adams, Salem Hills
Adams had 110 yards rushing and four touchdowns on only 13 carries as he led the Skyhawks to their first ever win in school history .
Upset of the week
Not many people gave Morgan a shot at beating high-powered Logan, but the Trojans pulled it off. Jake Kinsey rushed for two scores in the second half as the Trojans prevailed improving to 3-0 and all but clinching the Region 11 title.
Notable performance
LeSean Wilcox, Pleasant Grove
Wilcox racked up four touchdowns on the night, including three on runs of over 40 yards, to lead the Vikings to the high-scoring win.
Looking ahead
It's a short week for football teams across the state next week with all but one game scheduled for Wednesday. The game of the week is easily Mountain Crest at Sky View, two teams ranked in the Deseret News Top 10 and playing very well.
Notable performance
Clancy Mortensen,Millard
Mortensen scored on a 15-yard reception, an interception return and a 90-yard kick return, all while also rushing for 134 yards to lead the Eagles.
