Before the 2019 football season began, Park City coach Josh Montzingo knew this year had the potential to be unlike any other in not only his tenure, but also in program history. The Miners, who have yet to win a state championship despite playing in the state title game four separate times, entered this year as one of the Utah’s best in Class 4A following last year’s surprise playoff run. To help sustain that success and with expectations so high, Montzingo knew his team would have go from being the hunter to the hunted. So he implemented a season mantra that, so far, the Miners have lived up to. PARK CITY GOLF COURSE The Park City Golf Club is open for the season, but pending weather restrictions could be closed.

Bauer, who finished with a season-high three rushing touchdowns in the game, has rushed for 1,332 yards, fifth-best in the state. The “Swing the pick.” It’s what Montzingo began telling his team early this summer and has repeated nearly every day the Miners have been together. “I didn’t know if the boys were going to understand what comes along with having a target on their back, so we’ve talked about it and they knew it was out there,” Montzingo said. “With each swing you kept getting closer to your goal, never losing sight of it. … And if you stayed with steps, you could ignore the noise on the outside, which for us was getting more attention.” Montzingo says the mantra has become the official slogan of the team this year, allowing the Miners to focus solely on themselves and prepare to go 1-0 each and every week — and that’s exactly what they’ve done. Park City entered the state playoffs as the No. 1 seed with a perfect 10-0 record. They’ve dominated their competition thus far, averaging 42.2 points per game on offense while giving up just 11.5 on the defensive side of the ball. “It’s the same as usual for us, nothing changes than what we’ve always done because at the end of the day we still got to go 1-0,” Montzingo said. “We have to Weather WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY SUNDAY Partly sunny and cold Mostly sunny and cold Cold with sunshine Plenty of sun Plenty of sun Winds: N 3-6 mph Winds: SSW 4-8 mph Winds: NNW 4-8 mph Winds: ESE 3-6 mph Winds: WSW 4-8 mph 27°/8° 39°/17° 40°/17° 46°/23° 52°/28° Temperatures: High for the week ................................ 58° Low for the week ................................... 8° Precipitation: Total for the week ............................. 0.27” ACCUWEATHER UV INDEX Together since youth The Miners are led by a group of seniors who played together since they were little kids. According to quarterback Jack Skidmore, he remembers when he and his teammates would head to Dozier Field on Friday nights, dressed in their youth football uniforms and roaming the sidelines of the Miners games, envisioning being on that field one day. Linebacker Chase Johansen recalled how he and his now fellow seniors would sometimes talk about playing for championships on the same field they grew up watching. “It was such a great time playing with them when we were younger, but playing with those guys and the amount of fun we had and how much we won, we couldn’t wait to keep doing it in high school,” Johansen said. “We had some success as kids, won a few championships, but now we have the chance to win our final championship together.
