The season came to an abrupt and disappointing end for all local teams as the girls high school soccer tournaments began. Most surprising was Davis’ 1-0 loss to Layton that eliminated the highly-ranked Darts.

LAYTON 1  DAVIS 0 (OT)

These teams met twice in the Region 1 season, each beating the other on their home fields, so the third game in Kaysville looked like an opportunity for Davis to break that streak. But regulation ended in a 0-0 tie, and Brook Nelson scored the golden goal game winner in the second overtime as Layton edged rival Davis to advance to the 6A semifinals. 

Davis began the tourney with a 3-0 win over Westlake behind goals from Avery Thal, Brooklyn Phongsavath and Tessa Franks. Taygan Sill got the shutout. Davis finished the year with a record of 14-3.

LEHI 2 WOODS CROSS 0

The Wildcats’ season ended with a loss to the Pioneers, as Ally Dahl and Savannah Jones scored for Lehi and Hayley Ogden got the shutout. Woods Cross finished with an 11-6 record.

NORTHRIDGE 2 BOUNTIFUL 1

The Redhawks’ season ended at home despite a goal from Caroline Hellewell, assisted by Ellyse Kessler. Northridge scored once in each half for the win. Bountiful ended the year with an 11-5 record.

TIMPANOGOS 3 VIEWMONT 0

The Vikings couldn’t mount any offense against Timpanogos, as Lataya Brost scored twice and had an assist for her squad. Viewmont’s season ended with an 8-11 record.
