Surprise call propels Wolverines to win By Lya WoDRASKA The Salt Lake Tribune WEST VALLEY CITY — Hunterstood on Skyline’s 22-yard line, up by three points with 7:30 left, and facing fourth-and-three. Everyone knewthe ball was going to one of the Wolverines’ star running backs, Tauni Vakapuna or Matt Asiata.

That play turned a close game into a feeding frenzy for the second-ranked Wolverines, as they took down the fourth-ranked Skyline Eagles 31-14. The win should give the Wolverines their second straight Region title, assuming they don’t fall on their faces against Kearns two weeks from now. “T knew I was taking a chance,” Wilcken said of his fourth-quarter decision. “But how else are you going to win championships, unless you take a great we are,” Nielson said.

But Skyline gave the Wolverinesall they could handle early, as quarterback Mitch Reid scampered down the left side for a 43-yard touchdown run that gave the Eagles a 14-7 edge early in the second chance. He [Skyline coach Roger Du- quarter. Paix] said they would stick 11 guys whereverwe were runningit, and that is what they were doing.” Nielson’s touchdown was the crucial part of the 24 unanswered points the Wolverines scored. “Wefinally got to show everyone how How would the Wolverines respond by actually bging down in a game, after winningits last contests by an average margin of 38 points?
