The Lone Peak Knights will challenge the Bountiful RedHawks at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Hopefully Lone Peak focused on turnovers this week as the team gave up 17 on Tuesday.
While Knights fans will have to keep waiting for their squad to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Tuesday's season opener. They blew past East 70-26. The Knights are really starting to get used to good results now that the team has won 15 straight dating back to last season.
Lone Peak's success was spearheaded by the efforts of Kennedy Woolston, who went 6 for 11 from beyond the arc en route to 25 points plus six rebounds and two steals, and Zuri Nordstrom, who went 5 for 10 en route to 13 points plus eight steals and seven rebounds. Woolston's evening made it three games in a row in which she has scored at least ten points. Another player making a difference was Maddie Pope, who had nine points in addition to four steals.
Lone Peak smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 13 offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least eight offensive rebounds in eight consecutive contests dating back to last season.
Meanwhile, Bountiful unfortunately witnessed the end of their 20-game winning streak dating back to last season on Friday. They took a 53-42 hit to the loss column at the hands of Copper Hills.
Lone Peak beat Bountiful 68-61 in their previous matchup back in November of 2023. The rematch might be a little tougher for Lone Peak since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
