GIRLS

Davis

Davis defeated Layton 20-3 April 25, going up 15-1 by halftime and cruising to the win.

“Our game went really well,” said head coach Makenzie Hekking. “We had to sit a lot of our usual starters the first half because they missed practice for prom day dates, but it was nice to get some of our girls that ride the bench time on the field and get them varsity starts as well.”

Andrea Nichols and Tallulah Raser both scored three goals to lead the Darts while Kaydence Johnson (two goals, one assist), Brinlee Wilding (two goals, one assist), Olivia Lifferth (two goals, one assist), KC Gardiner (two goals), Gracie Rose (two goals), Emma Williams (one goal), Mackenzie Coleman (one goal), Sophie Karras (one goal), Lucy Bybee (one goal) and Ally White (one assist) were also part of the offense.

“Our team played unselfish in the first half and was trying to get everyone a goal so that was really fun to see,” said Hekking. “But, it was interesting once we put in our usual starters in the second half that our offensive production went down. We started to see girls try to play ‘hero’ ball and play to pad their stats instead of playing as a team. So, that’s definitely something I’m going to focus on and really emphasize to the girls.”

Against Clearfield April 27, Davis won 11-8. The Darts got out to a 7-4 lead at the break and maintained the three-goal advantage in the win.

“It was a rough game,” said Hekking. “We really weren’t doing ourselves any favors in the first half with just sloppy play and a lot of unforced turnovers from bad passes. We had a really hard time adjusting to how the refs were calling the game and that led to a lot of frustration and unnecessary penalties. We ended up having two girls get yellow cards nearly at the same time 10 seconds apart, but despite being two girls down we only allowed one goal. We ended up getting the ball on the next draw and stalled the offense until we were even. We also were struggling a lot with the draws again today – as a team we were only winning the draw 47.6 percent of the time.”

Raser’s four goals led Davis with Johnson (three goals, one assist), Coleman (two goals, one assist), Lifferth (one goal, two assists), Kerri Norton (one goal) and Esther Facer (one assist) also contributing offensively.

“We found ourselves up by only one or two goals with still seven to eight minutes left in the game so next time we got possession and had it on our offensive end we had the girls stall a bit and kill some of the clock,” Hekking said. “We gave them the green light once there was 30 seconds left on the clock and they were able to quickly score our last goal of the day to give us a three-goal lead. That ended up being enough for us to squeak out this win against a very gritty Clearfield team.”

The Darts are now 7-3 in Region 1 and 7-4 on the season.

Viewmont

Viewmont beat Bonneville 15-9 April 27.

“We started off really slow where the first 10 minutes or so we were in a sleepy lull,” said head coach Lauren Pescetti. “We let the game start off as a back-and-forth battle. I think after beating them in our previous match we may have been a bit lackadaisical going into the game. After the first half was about halfway through, we finally found our stride and got back to the level of Viewmont lacrosse that we can play. We were able to get ahead by a good amount and hold the lead for the remainder of the game.”

Keely Banks scored six goals and one assist to lead the Vikings. Eliza Runolfson (three goals, two assists), Avery Drake (three goals), Cecelia Walton (two goals, one assist), Alexis Lee (one goal) and Rachel Lee (two assists) also got on the board offensively. 

“I have to credit my midfield for their hustle and grit as well as my offense for having their shooting dialed in,” said Pescetti. “Our draws were great and we kept possession for most of the second half.”

Viewmont is now 3-2 in Region 5 and 7-3 overall.
