Where are you?
Re Region 16 | 11:26 a.m. Oct. 27, 2009
You can try but can you get past the unstoppable Region 20??? I think not
Region 16 | 11:56 a.m. Oct. 27, 2009
uh yeah i think so
Wow Rregion 20 | 2:25 p.m. Oct. 27, 2009
The unstoppable region 20? Did you already forgot you gave up 18 state
championships over the last 20 years to region 16. That seems a little weird
that you are calling yourselves unstoppable. Yes you have a talented team but
unstoppable? maybe its true. maybe your unstoppable. You probably are.

Manila beat Meridian

I have weighed in on the Top 20 article, but I feel that Amy Donaldson's
article merits a word or two. Rich's complete domination in volleyball is
flat out amazing. The other teams in the region need to make some noise though.
Other than Rich, who has even made a dent at state lately? Altamont took 7th in
2007. Last year neither Duchesne or Altamont even placed, so c'mon
Duchesne and Altamont, hold your end up, okay?
While I think that the Piute/St. Joseph game is going to be a dandy, the Duchesne/Monticello game looks like a gem also. I hope I am not giving Duchesne too much credit, but anyone who can beat Rich in Randolph has the capabilities of knocking off a very good team.
I do feel there won't be a lot of drama in the lower half of the bracket until the semis, but the top half is loaded. And, yes, Amy, the 1A is as balanced as it has been in a long time with quality teams. Coach Norris is right. Rich has made all teams step up to keep from getting embarrassed. More later.

Re Peter king | 9:34 a.m. Oct. 28, 2009
Thanx tons for your support to region 16. I agree with Norris as well, rich is
really bringing 1A alive. And no worries Duchesne and Altamont plan on making
some noise this year. Good Luck to all teams. Go Region 16!!!!
Whitehorse Alum | 10:24 a.m. Oct. 28, 2009

does anyone know who won out of Milford and Was. Ac.
Anonymous | 3:58 p.m. Oct. 28, 2009
Milford Won!!
Question | 7:06 p.m. Oct. 28, 2009
How is Bryce Valley this year?? Anyone know??
Rating the Mustangs | 7:58 p.m. Oct. 28, 2009
Bryce Valley is in that 2nd tier in Region 20. Panguitch and Piute are in the
upper echelon, with Bryce Valley and Wayne right below them. The others really
fall off after that. Will B.V. threaten for a title? No! Will Wayne? Again
that is a no. Only Panguitch and Piute have realistic aspirations of winning
the tournament.
So how about someone telling us who the legitimate contenders are from the other regions. Don't give us the "mom prognostication" but give us the facts. If your team doesn't have a couple of good hitters, if they don't have a good setter, if they don't defend well, if they can't block, they are not going to win it all.
C'mon who are the legitimate contenders?

RE Rating the Mustangs | 8:31 p.m. Oct. 28, 2009
Well Rich, Altamont, Duchesne, and ICS all have that, ICS not as much but they
pull it together.

Bryce Valley has two solid players. Cornforth and nelson are a good setter
spiker combo. They are young cornforth a sophomore and nelson a junior. Think
they should take care of dugway. They played panguitch 19 to 25 several sets
this year.
Anonymous | 9:31 p.m. Oct. 28, 2009
I think it will be piut panguitch monticello and rich as contenders.
Re Anonymous | 6:23 a.m. Oct. 29, 2009
If your talking about the top 4 then no, cuz if they win Monticello and Piute
will meet in the quarters
Region 16 | 6:28 a.m. Oct. 29, 2009
Go Longhorns, Eagles, Rebels, and Mustangs!!!!!!
Re Region 16 | 11:07 a.m. Oct. 29, 2009
heck yes, our region is the BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re Region 16 | 11:09 a.m. Oct. 29, 2009
are you kidding me, Region 20's number 2 beat your number 1!!! Seriously
get real
Anonymous | 1:34 p.m. Oct. 29, 2009
The only team even worth playing from region 16 is rich they have proved that
they are a good team. But region 20 has proven that every team in that region
will be tough. It has been proven in recent years how tough region 20 has been.
Re Anonymous | 2:24 p.m. Oct. 29, 2009
Key word HAS BEEN!! Region 16 will dominate this year
Peter King Picks | 9:49 p.m. Oct. 29, 2009
Just watched an exciting Yankees/Phillies game that Mariano closed out with
flair. Looking forward to the return of Brett Favre to Green Bay Sunday, too,
but it's time to make some picks here concerning the 1A volleyball tourney.
The teams moving through to the semis for Saturday Morning are these: Altamont
and Piute on the top half. Panguitch and Rich on the bottom. Teams that have a
shot at changing this? I will give one team a shot and that's ....no,
never mind. This will be your final four. After I watch these four play, I
will tell you who will advance to the championship and who will win it. You may
be in for a surprise.
Hope these picks don't make that one particular vein stick out in your temple, or make you pick up your laptop and call me an ignorant fool. Before you do any of that, just slip down to UVU and watch it unfold.
To you other 12 teams that qualified for state, congratulations! Well done! You have had solid seasons and should be proud of your accomplishments.
Making it to state this year was noteworthy. Until tomorrow....

Sorry Peter | 9:54 p.m. Oct. 29, 2009
You are close but you are completely blowing one pick. Monticello, not Piute,
will come out of that quarter. Monticello has the seniors and the guts to put
the pressure on the T-birds, and they (Piute) will fold like an old towel. In
case you want to know, Mr. King, Monticello will play Panguitch for the title
and will upset them. No veins, no laptop, just setting one of your mistakes
right.
Go Bucks!
Go Bucks!

So it should be over who won Monticello or Piute?
Huntin Fool | 6:28 p.m. Oct. 30, 2009
Deer season is still going because Piute just got some Bucks!!! Monticello
played hard they showed alot of character. Bobcat season opens tomorrow...
Piute Fan | 9:13 p.m. Oct. 30, 2009
The Piute Girls have a lot of skills. As long as they keep theyre minds in the
game and stay focuse we can have a good chance at taking state. In Fact I know
we can take state.
GOOD LOOK PIUTE WERE THINKING OF YOU!!!
GOOD LOOK PIUTE WERE THINKING OF YOU!!!
