Show Remember: local high - school football games to be played Thursday ! By GARY R. BLODGETT Sports Editor ; Remember, sports fans, prep football games this week will be played on Thursday instead of Friday, j Although it will be a regular school day in Davis County on I Friday, Region One and Four football games have been resche-: resche-: duled to Thursday because so many deer hunters will be leaving : early to set up camp for Saturday's deer hunt opener, i There will be four regional games in Davis County tonight, all beginning at 7:30 p.m. ; And all games tonight will be "crucial" to the outcome of the j regular season and may determine whether or not certain ' schools will be involved in regional playoffs which begin Saturday, Satur-day, Oct. 31. j Region Four games will pit Woods Cross against Bountiful on the Braves' field; and Viewmont will host the Davis Darts. ! Region One games will feature Layton against Box Elder at j Layton and Clearfield will play Weber on the Warriors' field. ! In the only other Region Four encounter, the league-leading Highland Rams will host East High's Leopards. This game will ! begin at 3:30 p.m. because there are no field lights at the Rams' i Stadium. There should be no 'blow outs" among the four Davis Coun- ! ty games even though Woods Cross, Davis and Viewmont have gotten off to a slow start and Bountiful has had its share of problems. Layton is undefeated this year but faces a very chal-j chal-j lenging team from Brigham City; and both Clearfield and Weber I have been powerhouses along with Layton and Box Elder in Region One all season. |
