Meanwhile, you're bound to get a positive result if you outscore your opponent every quarter, and that's exactly how it played out for Bountiful on Friday. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that they blew Woods Cross out of the water with a 63-34 final score. The RedHawks have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 14 matchups by 23 points or more this season.
Olympus better focus on containing Milika Satuala and Taylor Harvey as the pair were huge in Bountiful's win. Satuala went 9-for-13 en route to 21 points and six steals, while Harvey dropped a double-double with 19 points and ten rebounds. Another player making a difference was Abby Orme, who put up nine points.
Bountiful was working as a unit and finished the game with 19 assists. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Woods Cross only racked up six assists.
Bountiful pushed their record up to 20-2 with the victory, which was their seventh straight at home. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 62.6 points over those games. As for Olympus, their record is now 13-8.
Some high-performance offense is likely on the agenda as Olympus and Bountiful are some of the highest-scoring teams around. Olympus hasn't had any problem running up the score this season, having averaged 55.6 points per game. However, it's not like Bountiful struggles in that department as they've been averaging 60.7 points. With both teams so easily able to put up points, the only question left is who can put up more.
Olympus came up short against Bountiful in their previous matchup back in December of 2022, falling 46-34. Can Olympus avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
