Salt Lake County Player of the Week – Weston Briggs, Corner Canyon

Briggs and the Corner Canyon Chargers made their seemingly annual trip to Rice-Eccles Stadium last week for a showdown against Mountain Ridge High School. The Chargers got off to a quick start led by their ground game, racing out to a 14-0 first quarter lead with Briggs running in a touchdown from 38-yards out. He added his second rushing score of the day in the second quarter as CCHS built a 24-6 halftime lead.

Corner Canyon emerges from the halftime break with their passing game matching the prowess of their first half ground attack. Helaman Casuga hooked up with Briggs on a 58-yard touchdown strike midway through the third quarter and the rout was on. CCHS went on to win the game 59-20 as Briggs tallied 12 carries for 87 rushing yards and two touchdowns to go with four receptions, 84 yards and one touchdown receiving.
