By KEITH DUNCAN - ini- 4-- A : Viewmont to Highland are excited about their chances. Bountiful has a new look and a bright young sophomore quarterback in Joe Covey, Defensively the Braves have changed things around a little, but theyre getting more comfortable with each game. They also have one of the best kickers in the state in Matt Bombard. I believe theyre capable of beating anyone, said Wigham. g 14-- 5-- 0 View-mon- t, pre-seas- : : ABOUT WOODS Cross, Wigham noted, The Wildcats beat themselves in their first two games, then came back to kill Layton. They have two fine in Jeff Hawkins and Lee Watson. I believe this might be the year Woods Cross rises up, even though a lot of people didnt think it was in the beginning of the year. About Viewmont, Wigham continued, Viewmont is still a throwing machine with Bian Hardy doing the work at quarterback this year. They have gutsy, heads-u- p to compliment their passing game. The defense is loaded with aggressive kids who love contact and want to make things happen. HIGHLAND, according to Wigham, has gotten better with each game. They lost to Skyline in their opener but have gradually gotten better, enough in fact to beat highly-rate- d Olympus. Its the wishbone again and they run it as well as anyone around. They will end up being one of the top two or three teams in this league. The word again on East, said Wigham, Is that theyre big and physical. If their single wing ever gets cooking, they could be a team to reckon with. Davis has placed their confidence in QB Casey Lloyd to lead them to another Region Four crown. OVERALL, I honestly feel that no one will go undefeated in Region Four this year, said Wigham, Davis may win it, but I doubt theyll be I honestly feel that any team in Region Four, with the exception of East right now, could battle anyone in the state right now and be on Falcons Run Through Davis High Meat Grinder 5-- 0. pretty even terms. Davis Begins Trek 3-- 1 ; THE VIKINGS are 0 too and have beat up Clearfield, Layton and Skyline pretty bad. Highland is 1 with a very impressive victory over Olympus, one of Utah's powers this fall. And dont stop there. Bountiful is much improved over a year ago and so is Woods Cross.

Doctors of chiropractic use the natural health method, based on many decades of scientific observation. Like other branches of the healing am, chiropracnc is both an art and a science.
