KAYSVILLE -- This was one "Dream Team" that won a championship.

Unlike the NBA's Miami Heat or the NFL's Philadelphia Eagles, the Darts didn't disappear in their run to glory.

For the first time since 1975, Davis High swept the state volleyball title with a decisive three-game sweep of Lehi in the 5-A championship match on Nov. 5 at Utah Valley University.

MORGAN -- Casey Evans epitomizes the notion that significant achievement comes with a cost.

The basketball star from Morgan High School didn't sit around all summer and then simply show up at tryouts in the fall expecting awards and accolades to be handed to him. Instead he worked on his game constantly.

Evans participated in offseason workouts, played in pick-up games and leagues, and spent long hours honing individual skills that needed improvement. In short, his remarkable senior season was many years in the making.

The Titans' Brittney Martin has already captured a 5-A championship while playing in consecutive state title games. The best thing is, she is just a junior.
