Both of these teams anticipated the season opener and we got some good play from multiple players on the floor. Two fo Cedar Valley’s best prospects played okay but it just wasn’t enough. Jackson Rose hit double-figures and Cole Roberts Cole Roberts 6'1" | CG Cedar Valley | 2023 State UT couldn’t fully get going this game.

American Fork vs. Taylorsville
American Fork showed no mercy as they jumped out to a 22-4 lead after the first quarter and they kept Taylorsville to under 6 points per quarter in the first three quarters. They put the JV squad in the 4th and they still outscored Taylorsville 25-16. American Fork is deep like always and there is some talent out there on the Eastside of Utah County. PG Evan Young Evan Young 5'11" | PG American Fork | 2022 State UT looked great as he could basically do what he wanted in this game as he hit 6 three-pointers as Taylorsville likes to sit in a zone. Yaw Reener was solid and Ashton Wallace Ashton Wallace 6'4" | CG American Fork | 2023 State UT had a good game. Teams need to be cautions when playing a zone against AF.
Timpview vs. Ridgeline
A lot fo good takeaways in this game. The first one is that Ridgeline is good and they will be a problem in 4A. We had also mentioned before that Peyton Knowles Peyton Knowles 6'6" | SF Ridgeline | 2022 State UT is as solid as they come as a SF that is a bit undersized, but he makes up for it with his motor. Kaden Cox Kaden Cox 6'0" | SG Ridgeline | 2022 State UT will only get better as they continue to play. The next part of the takeaways on the Timpview side is that they will get some excellent play from various players on the roster. They were able to seal the victory on a last second shot that could’ve gone the other way. Truman Burningham and James Oldroyd have been solid in these early two games. Timpview will fight and claw against anyone.
