Bountiful, the third-ranked team in 5A, and Davis, who is third in the Region 1 standings, swept their opponents this week as the boys volleyball regular season is coming to a close. Viewmont also won both of its matches and Farmington also picked up a win.

Bountiful

Bountiful beat Northridge 25-9, 25-15, 25-18 on Senior Night April 30.

The Redhawks recognized seniors Allen, Perez, Trevor Cummings, Stuart Kisby and Nate Rasch.

“We had a great night celebrating our first senior class of our UHSAA-sanctioned boys volleyball,” said head coach Sarah Chism. “They have been trailblazers and leaders. We will miss them all, but wish them the best with their bright futures!”

Against Box Elder May 2, Bountiful also won in three sets 25-17, 25-13, 25-14.

The Redhawks remain undefeated through 13 Region 5 matches and are 20-6 overall.

Davis is now 5-4 in Region 1 play and 12-6 overall.

Viewmont

Viewmont beat Woods Cross 25-14, 22-25, 25-19, 25-17 April 30 in a battle of the second and third-place teams in Region 5.

“Both teams served a good match with minimal missed serves holistically,” said head coach Karl Lippa. “Both teams seemed to serve-receive well as there were not that many aces in the match for either side.”

Against Roy May 2, the Vikings won 25-21, 25-20, 25-18.

“We were rather consistent on our side of the net as Roy’s coach asked me afterward, ‘Does your team always play as consistently as they did tonight?’ which I thought was a tremendous compliment,” said Lippa. “Roy did a tremendous job at their serve-receive as we only had two aces on the night and their defense was scrappy and made us earn our points. Our offense was set well tonight with some intelligent hitting all along different sides of the net.”

Viewmont is now 11-2 in Region 5 and 16-10 on the season.
