For ; the Orem teams, that meant the ; beginning of Region 3 play. For the ; boys, that included a big cross-town cross-town rivalry game between ; Timpanogos and Mountain View ; and a matchup between Orem and ' Alta. For girls, Timpanogos visited Orem. For Pleasant Grove, both the boys and girls teams took on Provo and Payson in Region 8 openers. . . The highlight of the week's play ; - was the clash of unbeaten 5A ti-;"tans ti-;"tans Mountain View and ' Timpanogos. '-: Just three years after Timpanogos became Orem's third high school (with most of the stu-t stu-t dents coming from former Moun- tain View boundaries), the Timber .' Wolves have become a force in the state. They took a 4-0 record into I the Region 3 opener at Mountain Z View (6-0) and held their own be-1 be-1 fore falling 75-64 to the powerful ! defending state champions. I This is what Friday's are for," : Timpanogos . coach Mark '. Hardman said. This was a great ! game, it was up-tempo, there was ' a lot of good shooting. It was just fun." It was especially fun for Moun- tain View when the Bruins Thirteen young gymnasts from Orem's All American Gymnastics were among 200 competitors at the USA Gymnastics Utah Level 5 and 6 State Championship meet. The meet, held in Logan on November 21, was attended by gymnasts from throughout the state of Utah. Our local girls performed per-formed well, brining home numerous nu-merous medals and ribbons, .r : . Level 5 champions include Mickell Merrell who placed second sec-ond all-around with a score of 31.15 in the age 7-8 year group.

Red WinglShoe Store 248 North State Orem 224 jumped out to a 9-0 lead early and led 22-13 at the end of the first quarter. "We got off to a great start and that's what really carried us," Bruin coach Rob Cuff said. Timpanogos had a great second quarter and pulled to within four at the half. But in the second half, every time they pulled up on us, we came back with a big play." Many of those big plays came from the Bruins' "big play trio" of Tim Henry, Chris Hunter and Jeff Gardner. Henry had 26 points to lead the Bruin attack, Hunter added 18 and Gardner 10. Timpanogos entered the game with starter Steve Ott on the sidelines side-lines nursing an injured ankle. He was replaced in the lineup by Jeff Tuttle, who poured in 21 points in the second start of his career. "We aren't quite sure what is wrong with Steve's ankle," Hardman said. There's a lot of swelling in there and they're going go-ing to x-ray it Monday to see if there's a break anywhere. It really re-ally hurts us to have him out - he's one of the main ingredients of our team. But Jeff is doing a great job." If the x-rays prove negative, Ott should return to the team in two or three weeks. A break would mean at least four-to-six weeks out of the lineup. Also playing well for QSQDDDll In the 9-10 age group, Kelly Bray placed 3rd all-around (34.29); Lisa Harris placed 4th (33.9); Whitney Stiggins placed 5th (29.7).

Timpanogos had a 10-6 lead after af-ter the first quarter, but couldn't quite keep up the undefeated Tigers Ti-gers on their home court. "I'm really proud of our defense," de-fense," Timpanogos coach Carey Potter said. "Wendy Ott played great defense onAprilAtuaia - she really took her out of her usual driving game."
