The Springville Red Devils will square off against the Snow Canyon Warriors at 8:00 p.m. on Thursday. The two teams are strolling into their matches after big wins in their previous games.
Last Tuesday, Springville really took it to Cyprus for the full four quarters, racking up a 55-23 win. With the Red Devils ahead 34-11 at the half, the matchup was all but over already.
Springville's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Brynn Johnson led the charge by going 7 for 14 en route to 14 points plus six rebounds. What's more, Johnson also racked up four offensive rebounds, the most she's had since back in January. Hattie Templeman was another key player, scoring eight points.
Meanwhile, Snow Canyon took care of business in their home opener two weeks ago (and then some). They blew past Highland 83-19. The game was all but wrapped up at the end of the third, by which point the Warriors had established a 55 point advantage.
Olivia Hamlin had a dynamite game for Snow Canyon, almost dropping a triple-double on 37 points, nine assists, and 16 steals. Hamlin's afternoon made it 27 games in a row in which she has scored at least ten points. Another player making a difference was Joey Jensen, who went 10 for 16 en route to 21 points plus five steals.
Snow Canyon smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 20 offensive rebounds. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Highland only pulled down three.
Springville might still be hurting after the 63-42 loss they got from Snow Canyon in their previous matchup back in December of 2023. Can Springville avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
