North Summit is 8-2 against Juab since January of 2015, and they'll have a chance to extend that success on Tuesday. The North Summit Braves will challenge the Juab Wasps at 7:00 p.m. Hopefully North Summit focused on turnovers this week as the team gave up 16 on Thursday.
While Braves fans will have to keep waiting for their team to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Thursday's season opener. They came out on top against Canyon View by a score of 58-45.
North Summit's success was spearheaded by the efforts of Ellie Stephens, who dropped a double-double on 14 points and ten rebounds, and Hayzlyn Murdock, who dropped a double-double on 18 points and 12 rebounds. Murdock has been hot recently, having posted eight or more rebounds the last four times she's played. Another player making a difference was Hartlynn Richins, who posted 13 points plus six assists and six rebounds.
Meanwhile, Juab posted their biggest win since December 7, 2023 on Wednesday. They blew past San Juan 60-18. The Wasps pushed the score to 56-12 by the end of the third, a deficit the Broncos cut but never quite recovered from.
Ashlyn Wright had an outrageously good game as she dropped a double-double on 12 points and 11 steals. The dominant performance also gave her a new career-high in field goal percentage (83%). Mollie Blankenagel was another key player, earning 11 points in addition to seven steals.
North Summit was able to grind out a solid victory over Juab in their previous meeting back in December of 2023, winning 55-44. The rematch might be a little tougher for North Summit since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
