Fremont’s Manase Tuatagaloa found Salesi Moa with a 12-yard TD pass to tie the game at halftime. Hoopes found the end zone again on a three-yard pitch and catch from Will Peterson in the third. An Afu Fiefia pick-six gave Farmington all the points they would need.

Weber decimated the Lancers with a 35-point second quarter, giving the Warriors momentum in a 56-12 win. Brock Dean was the star of the game for Weber, finishing with three receiving touchdowns and a pick-six to close the first half. All four of Dean’s TDs came in the first half.

For the first 40+ minutes of this game, the score was knotted at 0-0. With three minutes left in the fourth, Mountain Ridge scored the first points of the game.

Lone Peak improved to 8-2 with a blowout 35-13 win over Westlake 13 unanswered points to start the game, and a 21-0 Knights run between the second and fourth quarters proved too much for the Thunder to overcome.
