"Our two starting 8th graders, Ryan Eldredge and Johnny Reyos, did a good overall job. We had a 13 point lead at one time. It was close in the first half and then we pulled away from them in the second half." West will host AJta- mont. January 21 and will battle Vernal, Ver-nal, January 28 at West Junior High. Altamont nipped West by one point, 37 to 36 and the top Viking scorer was Tom at 18 points. "We trailed 14-2 at the end of the first quarter and went ahead by two points in the fourth quarter. The score was tied and Altamont 'put in a shot at the buzzer," said Coleman. "Roosevelt beat us real bad and Tom was high scorer at 16 points. Vernal also defeated us." |
