The Salem Hills Skyhawks just played yesterday, but they'll still head out to face the Snow Canyon Warriors at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. Hopefully Salem Hills focused on turnovers this week as the team gave up 12 on Friday.
On Friday, Salem Hills lost to Dixie on the road by a 64-50 margin. The Skyhawks have struggled against the Flyers recently, as the game was their third consecutive lost matchup.
The loss doesn't tell the whole story though, as several players had good games. One of the most active was Grant Hardy, who scored 14 points. The team also got some help courtesy of Kade Moser, who almost dropped a double-double on ten points and nine rebounds.
Meanwhile, Snow Canyon unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-court advantage in their season opener. They took a 59-52 hit to the loss column at the hands of Springville on Friday.
Despite the loss, Snow Canyon had strong showings from Reggie Mackay, who earned 21 points along with six assists, and Gil Lamoreaux, who went 6 for 10 en route to 15 points plus five rebounds and three steals. The dominant performance also gave Lamoreaux a new career-high in offensive rebounds (three). Niels Larsen was another key player, earning eight points.
Salem Hills and Snow Canyon were neck-and-neck in their previous matchup back in December of 2022, but Salem Hills came up empty-handed after a 76-75 defeat. Can Salem Hills avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
