He took it literally, and ordered about 100 keychain laser pointers for the team.

“Started on Monday when we did that; I said it’s gotta be applied on Friday night, we got to have a clean game that’s executed well — and they did that tonight,” Peery said.

“So we’re going to go have a laser show in the locker room in about two minutes.”

The Davis passing attack was already enough of a laser show Friday night.

Quarterback Paden Toula completed 28 of 39 passes for 335 yards and five touchdowns — four in the first half and three to Bode Sparrow overall — in a 47-14 demolition of Olympus on Friday.

It was a 180-degree turnaround from the week before, when Toula threw one TD against three interceptions and completed 16 of 31 passes against Alta in his first start for Davis.

“I had all the guys behind me, the O-line — I’m best buds with all the O-linemen — so all of them, I trust my guys, trust my receivers. It’s nice to know I can trust them and give them chances,” Toula said.

Toula had a rough first two drives, missing some receivers and scrambling often. When he settled in, so did the Darts’ offense.

“O-line, they weren’t even doing bad, I was just rushing myself and I just tried to settle in,” Toula said.

Davis (3-2) trailed 7-3 in the first quarter before Toula connected with Sparrow for a 7-yard score to make it a 10-7 lead.

The game was never a contest after that.

Jaxton Itaaehau (10 yards), Sam Coleman (27 yards), and Sparrow again (7 yards and over two defenders) caught touchdown passes. The Darts reeled off 28 unanswered points to end the half up 31-7.

A second Griffin Carmack field goal made it 34-7 in the third quarter for a total of 31 unanswered.

After Olympus scored to cut the lead to 34-14, thanks in part to multiple Davis penalties, Toula found Sparrow in stride for a 47-yard score down the left sideline.

Briggs Taylor’s 19-yard scoring run made it a 47-14 lead early in the fourth quarter.

“We came together, and we just punched ’em in the mouth and didn’t let off,” Toula said.

Toula transferred to Davis this year from Bonneville and was behind St. John Bosco (California) transfer Brodie Scheinberg, who joined Davis in January.

Toula was named the starter last week, and Scheinberg promptly withdrew from Davis to transfer to Newbury Park (California) which, at least in Utah, turned the spotlight right onto Davis.

“It created more noise than it needed to, because there wasn’t much noise in the building. Outside, it was more noise,” Peery said.

One week made a big difference.

“It was just the first clean week where there was no noise, distraction, focus on the reps,” Peery said about Toula specifically.

Between his 43 rushing yards and the dozens of times he scrambled, Toula was moving more often than not but managed to find his receivers plenty of times. Eight different receivers caught a pass.

Itaaehau had 104 receiving yards, often finding soft spots in the middle of the field. Sparrow had 81 receiving yards, plus a tackle for loss on defense to stuff an Olympus fourth down.

Cooper Rigby had 59 yards and an interception on defense. The Darts also ran for 197 yards as a team.

Davis’ defense continued where it left off from last week’s 27-6 win at Alta, holding Olympus to 185 total yards of offense and holding the Titans to 0 for 6 on third downs.

It’s hard to say a win in mid-September will weigh much in November, but Friday’s win over the Titans was important in the postseason regard.

The Darts, with two losses, have a shot at one of the top four playoff seeds at the end of the season, which guarantees with it a home quarterfinal game.

The last four No. 4 seeds in the 6A playoffs have had regular season records of 8-2, 8-2, 7-2 and 7-3.

Next Friday’s tilt with 6A title contender American Fork was always going to be a big game; now it might have a little more at stake.
