High school boys soccer: Floodgates open for Ogden in second half in dominant 3A championship win over Manti
Throughout the scoreless first half of the 3A state championship game on Saturday, Ogden discovered firsthand why Manti was such a great defensive team all season, as it was organized and very difficult to break down. At the same time, Ogden had the better of the chances and possession in the first half, and coach Todd Scott told his players a goal would eventually come if they remained patient with their possession and buildup. The first goal indeed came just three minutes into the second half, and then they just kept coming. Ogden scored four goals during a 27-minute stretch to start the second half as it marched to a 4-1 win over previously-unbeaten Manti at America First Field to claim its first state championship since 2005. “The boys knew to respect that record, especially the 14 shutouts. We had to adjust at halftime, and realized we needed to play our game and the boys were resilient and executed and were patient in that second half. After that first goal, we had that momentum,” said Scott.
