What they hadn't planned on was the fine guards, Shelly Green and Chris Whetton, of AFTER jumping out to a first quarter lead of 17-- 6 the Vikes were never tested, they led 0 at the half. Second half provided Coach Debois an opportunity to go to his bench, and he played everyone that dressed for the period. VIEWMONT displayed a well rounded club, hitting on 22 field goals and 1 from 26-1- the Viewmont team. THESE two little people, at to their people, were a thorn in the Colts side all All the Vikes had to do was to get the ball up court and they would score at will. least compared three-up-fro- nt 11-2- the foul line. Although no rebounding statistics were officially kept, its safe to say the Vikes won that battle, probably doubling their op- contest. By the end of the third period the Vikings had a commanding 5 lead going for them and the reserves went the entire final period. Leading the scoring parade for the Vikings was sophomore Debbie Asper with 16, followed by the two guards with Shelly Green pouring in 12 and Chris Whetton adding 8 ponents. 44-2- Meanwhile the much taller and talented Viking team went into a 3 zone which the Colts couldnt penetrate at all. To make things worse they couldnt hit from the outside and they were only getting one shot each time down the floor while the Vikes were Scots Past Davis Foul The Vikes are shooting for the state title and they did nothing but gain the support of a lot of fans in attendance. College scouts are becoming commonplace when they play and opposing high school coaches can't believe this club. more. OGDEN - Once youve tasted the fruits of winning a state championship it makes it that much harder to give it up. Such is the case with the defending state champions, the Clearfield team. more points. Beene led all scorers with -- her basketball team has played another team twice during the regular season without success and you find yourself pi'ted against them again in a state playoff, then as coach you better have something up our sleeve to pull out the 20 Kathleen Shelly Smith, Thomley and Lisa McCand. It was a gallant effort on the part of the Braves, they never gave up as they hustled all over creating problems for their opponents. The loss put the Bountiful .club out of the tournament, but this young enthusiastic point performance, teammates Joyce Anderson with 8 and Ltentse Russell with 5 were high point getters for the Clearfield crew. BOUNTIFUL got their points from Crtsy Giles, Pleasant Grave State At At the conclusion of the first By DAVE WIGHAM quarter the Darts had a slim 0 lead, they continued to lead through the second quarter going into the lockers at - OGDEN Some clutch foul shooting down the wire and balanced scoring gave the Davis Darts their 5 victory over a stubborn Pleasant ALTHOUGH the Falcons win their region title didnt again this year they arent about to give up their state title without a fight.

Sophomore Jeff Emery hit a pait of charity tosses, as did Brad Petersen and Ryan Hill added one more, all in the final twenty seconds of the game to seal the coffin lid on the Vikings from P.G. started that fight on Tuesday 6 with a win over Granger. It appeared right from the start of this contest that the Clearfield girls were sounding a warning. That warning was that they werent about to give up their state crown without a fierce fight. Granger found out in a hurry just how serious the Falcons were. 38-3- 54-2- the Vikes in the closing moments of the game. Davis would pull out to a five or six point lead during the contest only to see the Vikings come roaring back with a couple of quick buckets. Sharpshooters for the P.G. club were their guards David Fatliff and Mark Walker, their long range bombs were the only thing saving the game from a THE VIKINGS needed the ball in the late going so they had to foul to get their hands on it but these three cool customers wouldnt fold at the line so the strategy backfired TO PROVE how awesome the Falcons were in this contest, consider that the Lancers final score was 26, and thats what the Clearfield team had amassed at halftime. Going into the lockers marthe Falcons held a gin over the outclassed Granger club. While all eyes were on Clearfields great forward Jackie Beene, at least the college eyes, it was an allround effort from the Clearfield crew that put this one away early. rout. DAVIS worked the ball around well and soon found one of their men open for a good percentage shot. Troy Howard, the center for the Darts, was a continuous blur on the floor as he was all over on offense trying to get open and then the at the other end on defense. Troy led a parade of Darts in scoring with 14, Brad Petersen had 8 and Ryan Hill and Mike Mounteer each on P.G. It had been an uphill battle for the Vikings all night as they trailed the entire game. 26-1- 5 team won the hearts and admiration of a lot of fans.

WHEN youre smaller than your opponents you have to make things happen, make it tough to get the ball inside, or even up the court. To say the Cats made it tough on the Carbon crew would be like saying Custer was outnumbered at the big battle he lost. You remember the one in all the history books. Well this massacre could go down m the books right next to the Custer affair.
