Bingham vs. Mountain Ridge
On paper it might seem as though Bingham should dominate this game but Mountain Ridge has some players that can really go and give Bingham some trouble. SG Merrick Sherwood Merrick Sherwood 6'4" | SG Mountain Ridge | 2022 State UT has been playing well all season and they will need his scoring form all over the floor in order to crack that tough Bingham defense. That defense is anchored by two players as the MIner’s protect the paint well with 6’7 SF Devin Carlson Devin Carlson 6'8" | SF Bingham | 2022 State UT who is starting to really get up and protect the rim. Devis is racking up the blocks and he is also starting to shoot the three-ball really well. Kam Dupaix Kam Dupaix 6'5" | CG Bingham | 2022 State UT has been one of the best defenders in the state this year marking almost every opponents best player. Look for him to have an impact on both ends of the floor. Jake Fitton Jake Fitton 6'2" | SG Mountain Ridge | 2022 State UT along with Merrick Sgherwood will need to ignite Mountain Ridge from deep in order to really put pressure on Bingham.

Pleasant Grove vs. Skyridge
The battle for Region 4 is on as the two top teams go toe to toe today. PG has a height advantage across the board but that hasn’t bothered Skyridge at all this season as Nick Holland Nick Holland 5'11" | PG Skyridge | 2022 State UT has been playing out of his mind. He is balling and he is hitting at all three levels. On the other end of the ball McCaden Adams McCaden Adams 6'3" | CG Pleasant Grove | 2022 State UT has been a player that cannot be stopped as he finds ways to score and he is not fazed by any defender or any defense. Michael Mitton Michael Mitton 6'3" | CG Pleasant Grove | 2023 State UT has been playing well as of late and he could be a difference maker as will Colby Carter Colby Carter 6'4" | CG Skyridge | 2022 State UT for Skyridge.
Key Players not Mentioned: 6’7 F Isaac Garrett Isaac Garrett 6'8" | SF Pleasant Grove | 2023 State UT (Pleasant Grove), 6’9 C Bryson Bailey Bryson Bailey 6'10" | C Skyridge | 2022 State UT (Skyridge)
Cottonwood vs. Cedar Valley
Both teams are in the same position in the region standings. This game is huge moving forward as both teams are looking to make a run from now on to position themselves in the RPI. Really like the addition of Robbie Yates Robbie Yates 6'3" | CG Cottonwood | 2022 State UT as he is able to really showcase his talent full-time. Jackson Rose Jackson Rose 6'9" | C Cedar Valley | 2022 State UT will be a tough cover for Cedar Valley Jackson Rose Jackson Rose 6'9" | C Cedar Valley | 2022 State UT as his size and skill near the rim is nice. There will be a huge play for the role players to chip in on both ends of the floor. Noah Widerburg Noah Widerburg 6'4" | CG Cottonwood | 2022 State UT is a major stat stuffer that can go.
Key Players not Mentioned: Ty Christense (Cedar Valley), Chris Cox (Cottonwood)
