Davis

Davis defeated Syracuse 15-3 March 30.

“We played a well-rounded game on both sides of the ball,” said head coach Dillon Yocom. “Offensively, we were led by a big performance from Nick Johnson who scored six goals on the day. Hunter Keller had a great day in cage and made a ton of great saves for the team.”

The Darts’ March 28 game with Clearfield was postponed due to field conditions.

Davis evened its season record to 3-3.

“It’s good to head into Spring Break with a win,” Yocom said. “We look forward to finishing the second half of the season strong once we come back.”
