Layton High School

LAYTON -- For Layton, it must have felt like forever ago.

'It' is the last time the boys basketball team defeated Davis and 'it' happened for the first time since the 2003-04 season on Friday evening when the Lancers dumped the Darts for their first Region 1 victory of the season.

LAYTON -- On a team devoid of star power, it is all about defense and teamwork for the once-beaten Lancers.

In its final home game this season, Layton High again got balanced scoring en route to a 55-37 Region 1 victory Tuesday over the Silver Wolves.

"I'm not really emotional. I play every game the same it feels like," said Lancers senior center Courtnee Wood. "I came up as a freshman, so when it started, it seemed like it would be a long four years. But it's just flown by."

LAYTON -- It was a good thing Ally Wahlstrom was on because the Lancers were a tad off.

Despite an uncharacteristic 23 turnovers, Layton High still smoked the crosstown rival Knights by 21 points Friday in a Region 1 runaway.

"To me, our big rival is Davis. But to Northridge, I think we're their big rival," Wahlstrom said.

LAYTON -- The Weber Warriors found themselves in a dogfight with the Layton Lancers Tuesday night.

Despite holding a one-point lead at the half, the Warriors turned up the defensive intensity and won their Region 1 game going away, 77-63, to wrap up the first half of region play.

LAYTON -- The "Duel in Davis" was a dandy -- for the state 5-A runner-up Titans.

Despite scoring 14.42 points less than its state-leading 71.42 points per game average, Syracuse High is the state's only undefeated girls basketball team after Friday's 57-41 Region 1 victory over the Lancers played before a sizable crowd.

HYRUM -- The Mountain Crest swim teams swept the Region 5 championships on Friday at the Stang Aquatic Center.

Hailey Pabst led the Mustangs with titles and a pair of Region 5 records.

The Mountain Crest boys dominated the meet, winning all but two events.
