Girls basketball: Region 5 road teams find right mix

Last updated Thursday, February 9, 2012 - 11:26pm

ROY -- Faced with an opportunity to move up the Region 5 standings, the Roy and Box Elder girls basketball teams didn't get the job done at home.

Region 5-leading Bonneville went on the road and used a strong defense to clinch the league title with a 50-39 win over Mountain Crest.

The Lakers (17-3, 9-0) led at every stop, holding the Mustangs' Karlee Kartchner to just five points. Region 5 teams have one game to play on Tuesday.

CLEARFIELD -- Led by senior guard Mikenzey Wiberg's game-high 18 points, the Falcons picked up their third Region 6 win and kept their state tournament hopes alive with a 51-38 win over visiting Highland High on Tuesday night.

Wiberg helped Clearfield take a 24-21 lead at the half and the Falcons never looked back, keeping the Rams at bay with an 18-of-26 performance from the charity stripe.

"We shot very well on the line tonight," Clearfield coach Rebecca Packer said. "That was probably the biggest thing we did well. It was huge."

OGDEN — For the second time, a judge has declined a request to release from jail the 16-year-old suspect in a Roy High School bombing plot.

But 2nd District Juvenile Judge Janice Frost on Friday did grant a request for furloughs with Joshua Kyler Hoggan’s parents so the teen can continue mental health counseling.

After Friday’s brief hearing, officials declined to comment on the exact status of Hoggan’s medications or treatment.

Girls basketball: Lakers get ugly win over Griz

WASHINGTON TERRACE -- It was not smooth sailing this week for the league-leading Lakers.

First up was a rocky six-point road win Tuesday over last-place Box Elder. Then Thursday, Bonneville had to regroup after a turnover-plagued, three-point third quarter to subdue the Grizzlies 49-37 and remain undefeated in Region 5.

"I think we had a good first half," Lakers junior guard/forward Emilie Volk said. "We weren't up on our feet like we should have been on defense and they got some 3-pointers. We couldn't miss when we were up there (shooting 49.1 percent in a 65-39 win on Jan. 17). I think we were ready; our shots weren't falling as much."

OGDEN -- The Weber County Attorney's Office has filed a motion in 2nd District Juvenile Court to certify 16-year-old Joshua Kyler Hoggan as an adult for what officials say was his role in plotting to set off a bomb at Roy High School.

Hoggan and another Roy High student, Dallin Morgan, 18, were arrested Jan. 25 after police and school authorities uncovered what they say was a plot to set off a bomb during a school assembly, steal an airplane and fly out of the country.

Hoggan would normally be tried in juvenile court, which is less public and only has jurisdiction until he turns 18.

Prep basketball: Royals no match for Lakers' stingy defense

Dennis Larsen Standard-Examiner

Last updated Thursday, January 26, 2012 - 11:37pm

WASHINGTON TERRACE -- The matchup of the Royals' state 4-A leading offense (56.20 points per game) versus a Bonneville defense allowing just 36.47 ppg -- No. 2 in the 4-A ranks by only .04 -- was a no-contest.

Despite a venue change Thursday, the league-leading Lakers spanked Roy High 54-22 to remain undefeated at Region 5's midpoint.

If Bonneville (13-3 overall, 5-0 league) is to capture its first league girls basketball title since the 2003-04 season, it will have to do it away from home. The Lakers, who swept their seventh consecutive victory and are 8-2 spanning their last 10 games, play four of their final five on the road.
