Bountiful

Bountiful beat Bonneville 25-16, 25-15, 25-4 Sept. 17.

Head coach Kelsie White noted the play of two seniors in particular with Mae Johnson recording a senior-high five blocks and Ellen Davis putting away five kills with zero errors.

 “Our match went really well,” said White. “The girls are improving all the time and all three of our teams won. Varsity was able to serve aggressively and get Bonneville out of system, making it easier for our front row to put up a strong block. The whole team had a great night and I was happy with our performance.”

Against Roy Sept. 19, the Redhawks also swept another Region 5 opponent 25-10, 25-16, 25-19.

Bountiful improved to 9-2 overall and 3-0 in the region standings.

Against Box Elder Sept. 19, the Wildcats won 25-13, 25-10, 25-12 to bring their season record to 9-3 and Region 5 mark to 3-1.

Viewmont

Viewmont lost to Northridge 22-25, 25-13, 23-25, 25-9, 15-8 Sept. 17.

“This match was a battle of servers versus passers – whichever team received the ball better and limited the errors won the set,” said head coach Karl Lippa. “Northridge made great adjustment and when their libero came alive for them, that set a great tone for them. We did well to weather the storm and took the match to five sets. We will need to work harder to prepare for our next meeting with them.”

Against Bonneville Sept. 19, the Vikings pulled out a five-setter 28-26, 22-25, 13-25, 25-19, 15-4.

“This was another battle within Region 5 and the match was fun to watch,” said Lippa. “Bonneville looked the best they have looked in all four years I have been at Viewmont. Both teams received the serve well, and what Viewmont had in power, Bonneville had in quickness. The only main differences from the even play were when they went on a serving run in set 3 and us in set 5. We know we need to work hard to prepare for more Region 5 battles this season.”

The Vikings are now 3-4 overall this season and 2-2 in region play.

Davis

In its first Region 1 match of the season, Davis lost to Weber 22-25, 25-20, 25-18, 25-22 Sept. 19.
