The Miners defeated the Soaring Eagle again 7-5 last month. Though defensive coach Brian Bilzi said, just like last year, that regular season game doesn’t count for much. “You don’t get revenge in April,” he said. But so far they are on track. The team had some close scrapes early in the season while it was developing its offense – winning in the last minute in its first two games – but the Miners managed to avoid defeat. “It’s been tough,” Bilzi said. “We had a lot of seniors last year, then we have a lot of first-year varsity players, so there’s been a lot of tinkering and working. If you asked me if at this point in the year if we would be undefeated, I don’t know if I would have said yes. ... The kids just come together and get it done. It’s very gritty. Last year we got by on a lot of talent; this year we get by on a lot of grit, so it’s cool to see.” And a lot of that has to do with the defense. Under Bilzi, the team has only given up 42 goals all season and scored 103. It’s hard to compare this to other teams in the state, because for the most part, their statistics aren’t available. But the defensive-leaning goals- Deer Valley Resort is closed for the season. For details on the resort’s activities and season passes, visit DeerValley.com or call 435-6491000.

And according to Meyer, that comes town to both hardnosed players and Bilzi’s coaching. “Well, the kids love playing for him, first off,” Meyer said. “He has them bought into the system, and they play it together and work as a unit. And they have very high IQs for lacrosse; they understand when to slide and when not to slide. He’s a very good teacher.” Sophomore Dylan Bauer, who has scored the second most goals for the team with 27, agreed with Meyer’s assessment, saying Tuesday’s win started with Bilzi, who has “coached our guys up pretty nice.” Nice enough that Bauer can comfortably call the defense “the best in the state.” Bilzi, who works in financial analysis when he’s not coaching the Miners, has successfully coached the defense for the past four seasons. It consists of mainly underclassmen, with Marc Colaizzi, a junior, and senior goalie Connor French as the defense’s only upperclassmen. Andrew Pedersen, Brady Bauman, Luke McCall, Nate Harwood and Teddy Elbert are all sophomores, and all but Elbert and Harwood started last season. “They’ve improved so much starting (last-season’s games), and now that they’re bigger, stronger and faster, it’s made a huge difference for us,” Meyer said. Then there’s French, the goalie, who has an outstanding .67 save percentage – a testament to his skill and the kind of compromised shots the defense forces opponents to make. His lowest save percentage during a game this season was .50 against Judge Memorial Catholic High School on March 28, where the Miners won 14-2, while his highest was a five-save shutout against Skyline High School two weeks ago, which the Miners won 15-0. On offense, senior Bernheardt “Beau” Pedersen leads the team with 34 goals, followed by Bauer with 27, junior Connor Hales with 13 and freshman Connor Monson with 12. Now, with five games left in regular season and their toughest games until the state championship tournament behind them, the Miners must find a way to stay sharp. The coaches are confident the team can do that. “If we don’t get better, we don’t win the championship,” Meyer said. “I think they know that and I think they’re ready to go for that.” all around at the state competition, and she will compete in Arizona alongside 11 of her peers against other state teams in the region. Dahl, her level 6 teammate, had the leading score in the state for her floor routine. Meanwhile, Puchalski and Christoffersen were able to score highly enough (earning 35 or more points) to advance to the regional tournament. Puchalski said the state meet was her best in a while. “I hit all my handstands, I stuck my faults, stuck my dismounts and I made a full beam routine without falling, so I felt great and was very proud of myself,” she said. Wendy Hamilton, head coach of the optional team, said the team came into the state meet with a lot of confidence, and performed well against tight competition. “It comes down to who hits and who hits big, especially at the upper levels,” she said. Three tenths of a point separated first place from 10th in level 7’s all-around rankings — calculated by averaging scores from the contestants’ four events. “That’s a really small gap,” Hamilton said. “Usually you’re separated by points.” Puchalski finished 19th overall while Christoffersen was 64th out of more than 80 contestants. On the Xcel team, which is hosting the USAG 2018 Region 1 Xcel Championships in Sandy this weekend, Hadley Mulholland had the third highest allaround score in the entire state meet across all levels and age groups. More than 900 gymnasts competed. The Xcel team took bronze overall.
