High school football: Highland wins nail-biter over Murray for Region 10 bragging rights
The Region 10 football race centers around three teams, and two of those teams battled on the gridiron Friday night as reigning region champion Highland hosted Murray. It was a game full of chaos and one that seemed to drag on forever due to 40 combined penalties, but it was also a game of fun football in between where the win came down to the final play as Highland’s defense made a goal line stand to preserve a 34-29 lead as time ran out. The lead was the Rams’ first of the game and came with 2:20 remaining after Will Bauman intercepted a moving Dru Reuss and raced down his sideline 55 yards into the end zone. Willem Miles punched through the PAT and Highland found itself ahead. “Dru is a great quarterback, and I know he likes to make plays with his legs and that he will try to make something happen,” said Bauman. “He’s really good at it, but that time I read it right.” For Bauman, who plays both defensive back and quarterback for the Rams, it was a nice follow up as he had just helped the Rams cut into Murray’s lead the drive before with

High school football: Week 6 flashback — Alta, Fremont, Murray, Cedar City and Ridgeline get momentum building victories
Disciplined Alta gets first win over Olympus in 4 years A strong first half by Alta propelled it past Olympus 23-10. Alta scored 16 of its 23 points in the first half and its defense stood strong, with the Hawks taking a 16-3 advantage into the halftime break. From there it was just about playing clean football and managing the clock. In its first Region 6 game of the season, Alta proved it is a team to keep a close eye on as the schedule moves deeper into region play. The scoring was spread throughout the roster, with kicker Madden McCallister nailing a 35-yard field goal to start the game and three different players scoring a touchdown. “It was a good win for our program,” said Alta head coach Blake Burdette. “Olympus is a very good team, and we haven’t beat them in four years. I was happy with the progression of our offense, and our defense is playing really well right now. We still have a long way to go, but I’m happy with the progress.” Burdette was very pleased with how his team played in all three phases of the game, and finally beating Olympus can give the
