🏈 Bountiful Pulls Off a Thriller at Alta

Talk about a finish! Bountiful pulled off a dramatic 29–28 road win over Alta Friday night, scoring in the final minute and then going for two to win it.

The Redhawks jumped out to an early lead before Alta battled back and moved in front. With the game on the line, quarterback Hudson Malmrose scored on a 1-yard run, then connected with Max Feller on the 2-point conversion with just 44 seconds remaining.

Malmrose finished with 287 passing yards, while Feller had 136 receiving yards and a touchdown. Cole Brooks added two rushing touchdowns.

The win moves Bountiful to 5–2 on the season—and gives the Redhawks another big Region 6 victory. 👉 Read More

🏈 A Wild Friday Night for South Davis Football

Bountiful wasn’t the only local team involved in a memorable one Friday.

Woods Cross outlasted Brighton 60–52 in a high-scoring Region 6 battle. Bronson Martin scored twice in the third quarter, including a 67-yard touchdown run that put the Wildcats ahead for good. Quarterback Tage Ita threw four touchdown passes as Woods Cross improved to 3–5.

Elsewhere, Farmington fell to Davis 14–3 in Region 1 play, while Viewmont lost to Olympus 34–21.

And a heads-up for this week: several Region 6 games are being played Thursday instead of Friday, including Brighton at Bountiful and Alta at Viewmont. 👉 See Friday's Football Roundup

🐾 Meet Sushi, a total sweetheart with a heart
as big as her personality! 💕🐶

Sushi’s most prized possession is a tiny squeaky ball that originally belonged to her sister. It may be little, but to Sushi, it’s the BEST toy in the world! 🎾🥰

But what really makes Sushi special is how much she adores kids. She’s incredibly sweet and patient and happily soaks up all the attention they can give her. 💗

And when treats are involved? Sushi isn’t picky! 😂 Whether it’s handed to her by a human or happens to mysteriously appear on the floor, she’s ready to help with cleanup. 🍪

Sweet, patient, toy-obsessed, and always ready for a snack — Sushi is one special girl! 💙🐾
