Juab had already proven themselves in the regular season and they didn't miss a beat now that it's playoff time. They secured a 26-20 W over the Grantsville Cowboys on Friday. That's the second time they've managed to beat them this season, as they also won 36-35 back in September.
Jaden Heap had another great game (as he tends to do), picking up 146 receiving yards and three scores. He was no stranger to the big play, lighting up the secondary with a catch that went for 61 yards.
Another reason for the win was Juab's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for 3.5 sacks. The team can thank three different players for their defensive prowess: Heap, Carter Wilson, and Zach Stilson, who each picked up one sack apiece. Max Gardner got in on the action too, converting a pick into a touchdown.
Several Cowboys players turned in solid performances despite ultimately coming up short. Perhaps the best among those players was Dallan Van Vliet, who threw for 228 yards and a pair of touchdowns, and also rushed for 55 yards. A healthy portion of Van Vliet's aerial production (119 yards to be exact) went to Jaxxon Jensen, who also brought in a receiving touchdown.
The victory made it two in a row for Juab and bumps their season record up to 9-3. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 45.5 points over those games. As for Grantsville, with the loss, they broke their three-game winning streak and moved their record to 7-5.
Looking ahead, Juab will challenge Cedar at 10:00 a.m. on Friday. The Wasps will need to watch out since the Reds have now posted at least 31 points in their last eight matchups. Grantsville does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
