The six-team Region 1 has finally started league play as the race begins for region supremacy and playoff seeding. 

Both Davis and Farmington were 1-1 through the first two games with eight more to go before the teams wrap up the regular season. 

In one of those two games, the region rivals faced one another.

On March 29, Davis and Farmington met up prior to taking a week off for spring break. In a game held on Davis’ home field, neither team disappointed, as the schools produced an exciting, down-to-the-wire double-overtime contest. 

Farmington outlasted Davis 2-1, getting the winning goal in the second overtime. 

Davis scored on a goal by Cooper Harwood, assisted by Bjorn Bergant. The goal gave the Darts a 1-0 halftime lead. However, Farmington scored in the second half to send the game into overtime where it would prevail. Josh Foster had a goal and assisted on one by Toby Grant. Jake Peterson assisted on Foster’s goal. 

Before falling to Farmington, Davis blew out Weber 5-1 in an offensive showcase. Davis exploded for four goals in the first half alone. Miles Iverson put on a show, scoring three times in the game. Braxton Passey and Noah Jolley also scored, while Mark Seelos recorded two assists. Kyle Livermore also assisted on a goal. The offensive output was the highest of the season for Davis, which had scored three goals on two other occasions this season. 

Meanwhile, Farmington suffered what has so far been its only loss of the season March 27 at Layton. In a defensive battle, the Phoenix and Lancers held each other scoreless in regulation and through two overtime periods. It took a shootout to decide the outcome, which Layton won by making four penalty kicks to Farmington’s two. 

Farmington hosted Fremont on April 10 and then play at Weber on Friday. Davis entertained Syracuse on Wednesday before facing Fremont on the road this Friday.
