Behind Trey Thornton s 19 kills, the Maple Mountain Golden Eagles fought off a scrappy Bountiful team to claim the inaugural 5A boys volleyball title Saturday in Orem.
The Maple Mountain Golden Eagles are dominating Region 7 with a 5-0 region record, and they’ve won 15 of 16 total in-region sets. It was no different Tuesday evening as the Golden Eagles continued their dominance with a convincing 3-0 sweep over the Timpview Thunderbirds. Despite being the defending 5A champions, Timpview couldn’t keep up as Maple Mountain won 25-18, 25-14 and 25-17.
Mountain Ridge has some great athletes and unless you can get two blocks up against them and diggers in the right place, they will score with ease. All in all it was a good match for us to learn how to change strategy quickly. In a Region 3 showdown between fierce rivals, the Pleasant Grove Vikings (11-3) emerged victorious over the Lone Peak Knights (6-1) in a four-game battle, 27-29, 25-18, 25-18 and 25-21.
