SALT LAKE CITY – Thunderstorms delivered a delayed start for many games along the Wasatch Front as Utah high school football battled through Week 6.

Corner Canyon took down Lone Peak in the Game Night Live Game of the Week, but that was just one domino in a long line across Utah under the rain-bathed lights.

Here’s the skinny on what did and didn’t happen amidst the storms in Week 6.

All scores courtesy of the Deseret News.

Farmington (3-3) traveled to face Weber and handed the Warriors a 30-13 loss, giving both programs a .500 record. Kava Fiefia caught two of Alton Dahl’s three touchdown passes, including TDs from 77 yards and 52 yards.
