The Grantsville Cowboys pushed their score all the way to 58 on Wednesday, but even that wasn't enough to win. They fell 68-58 to Ogden. Grantsville was given a dose of their own medicine in this game as Ogden apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in February of 2023.

The team also got some help courtesy of Teegan Porter, who scored 12 points along with five assists and three steals.
