You usually don't see the kind of passing efficiency and skill that post players Cali Nelson and Amy Weitzeil possess at the high school level. Throughout Tuesday's Tues-day's game Nelson and Weitzeil ran a high-post, low-post offense that gave Payson fits and showcased show-cased both players' abilities to not only put points on the scoreboard, but to involve their teammates. These are two players that could easily control the offense and take all of the shots, but both players were unselfish throughout through-out and always looking for an open teammate.

She averaged 28.5 points and 8.5 rebounds as the Wolverines ran their win streak to seven with wins over Southern Utah and at Weber State. "Robyn is just a special player. I'm glad she is on our team," said UVSC coach Cathy Nixon. "She has such incredible incred-ible hands and the great thing is she is working hard to get better. People are trying to do everything they can to stop her." everyone, by what numbers show up in the won-)oss column, but this is a team that is going to go far in the chase for region and state glory. That should about do it for this week. Currently my thoughts are focused on microwave cookery and why it is that the guy who took care of the Chipmunks never got busted by PETA or the Child Protective Pro-tective Services. The guy forced Alvin, Simon and Theodore to sing songs while he raked in the cash and nobody ever did anything. He yells at Alvin to sing, Simon and Theodore are forced to duke it out for a hoola-hoop and nobody no-body ever questioned his motives. With that said, it's been a good week and the idea of cross-town rivals facing off before and after Christmas is enough to keep anyone any-one going while suffering through Christmas parties with the in-laws.

Massey netted 19 of his game-high 25 points in the second sec-ond half to lead Payson to the 67-52 win over the T'Wolves. After a back-and-forth battle found the T'Wolves trailing 32-28 32-28 at the half, the visitors tried to mount the comeback. Fueled by the strong performance per-formance of guard Skyler Hal-ford Hal-ford (15 points), the T'Wolves looked to take the lead midway through the third quarter. However, Massey went on a tear, scoring 11 of his team's 17 points in the third quarter, and didn't let up after that. After starting the game 2-for-4 from the field, Payson's smooth-shooting senior torched the net in the second half, going a perfect 8-for-8 from the field, including two key treys to put the game out of reach. Payson's Dustin Rowley provided a spark off the bench, amassing 19 points. The Lions stifled the T'Wolf offense, holding them to a 14-of-54 (26 percent) from the field. "The defense did a great job being in position to stop them whenever they tried to penetrate," pen-etrate," Lunt said. "One thing was constant for us tonight our defense."

There was the 26 points that Cali Nelson scored throughout the first 24 minutes of play, including 22 points in the first half alone, as well as strong play from Stacey Bartholomew and great post-play from Amy Weitzeil and Nelsoa On top of the strong individual individ-ual play was the commanding 5947 lead that Timpanogos held heading into the fourth quarter. But in the end the first 24 ,minutes of greatness were erased by the eight minutes that make up the fourth quarter quar-ter as Timpanogos fell to Pay-son Pay-son 74-70 in overtime. "There was moments of greatness in the game and the first half we really came intense," said Timpanogos coach Liz Darger. "But our defense de-fense kept them in the game and took away from what our offense was doing." What Timpanogos' offense did in the first half, however, was a thing of beauty as Weitzeil and Nelson used a low-post, high-post offensive game plan to perfection and continued to find each other throughout the half. "Amy and Cali have played a lot together and they made really good choices," said Darger. "They're two of the top post players in the state and we expect defenses to adjust to that since we don't have the same kind of outside shooting that we had last season. sea-son. It's no secret that this is how our offense works." Though Darger didn't make it a secret, by the start of the second half it was clear that Payson wasn't going to allow Weitzeil and Nelson to abuse them like they had in the first half and Payson coach Dave Hiatt changed his defense. "We started noticing where they (Nelson and Weitzeil) were at and we went to a zone defense," said Hiatt. "We did a great job limiting Nelson in the second half." While Nelson was double Mtn.View Continued pom Page 11 View jumped out to an early 24-0 lead after the first four matches. Dustin Tolman, Gabe Raeder, Chris Ferguson and Corbin Frost all picked up the six-point pins to give the Bruins Bru-ins a jumpstart. T'Wolf Sam Ashman broke up the streak with a 55-second pin over Tenneyson Porter. The match of the night had to go to Josh Harmon of Timpanogos. Although he weighed in for the 112-pound class, his coach decided to put him at 119, rather than have a forfeit at both 119 and 112. Mountain View's James Barsh got the first points of the match with a takedown early on, but the quick Harmon got the reversal soon after, and put Barsh on his back for a two-point two-point near f alL Barsh flipped over to his stomach as the period pe-riod ended to stay away from the pin.

The tide shifted in the fourth quarter as Payson went on a 154 run to open up the fourth quarter and give Payson the lead for the first time since early in the first quarter. "It's a pride thing when you get to that point," said Hiatt. "You get down that far and you see the other team laughing laugh-ing on the court and it's your home court and you start to play for pride." That pride led Payson's Allie Lunt to score 17 points in the second half, including three 3-point shots and clutch free-throw free-throw shooting that allowed Payson to take the lead in the fourth quarter and to gain much needed momentum heading head-ing into the fourth quarter. Lunt wasn't alone Brooke Hiatt made the coach proud with 14 points in the second half, including six in the fourth quarter to kick off Payson's 154 run. Lexi Bushman came up big for the T-Wofves late in the fourth quarter when Payson took a 66-64 lead and a three point play by Bushman allowed Timpanogos to tie the game and send it into overtime. "We took too long to score in the fourth quarter and we just need to learn how to seal the deal," said Darger. "Our preseason is hard and we need to put the nail in the coffin cof-fin and learn how to use the clock better. Someone needed to step up and do the little things better." Instead it was Hiatt and Lunt that did the little things, connecting on crucial free-throws free-throws down the stretch and giving Payson the 74-70 victory vic-tory in overtime. "We scheduled a hard preseason pre-season because we knew that would prepare us for region play," said Darger. "The girls are working hard and I absolutely abso-lutely think that we're headed in the right direction." Next up for Timpanogos is the Nike Tourney starting Dec. 19. the second period on bottom, he got a the quick one-point escape to move within one point in the match, 4-3. In the third period, Harmon got the takedown, and put Barsh on his back with 35 seconds left. Barsh stayed off of his back long enough to ride out the clock and only gave up three points to theTWolves. Bryce Florea, Carter Roberts and Clay Frost all rallied for the Bruins to pin their opponents, oppo-nents, before Michael Shur-tliff Shur-tliff ended the night well for Timpanogos with a win. "Our first-year 215pounder, Nick Zollinger, came in and gave us a big win. He wrestled hard and got us a pin," Stoddard Stod-dard said. "Barsh, our 119-pounder 119-pounder fought hard.
