Game Details - Boys Basketball

It was a crazy night of comebacks in Region 1. While Davis was securing its 20-point comeback a few miles up the road, the Lancers fought back from an 11-point halftime deficit to pick up a 59-57 comeback victory of their own over Farmington Friday night. Layton struggled to find its rhythm early in the game, but as shots began to fall in the second half, it began to see an increase in defensive intensity, which sparked the comeback. Despite finding its way back into the game, the Lancers still trailed late, but a go-ahead three-pointer from junior Mekhi Martin with just over three seconds remaining gave Layton the margin it needed to eke out the win. Layton's KJ Miller scored a team-high 14 points, while Farmington's Paul Beattie scored a game-high 17 points. “Basketball is a game of runs. We felt that even though we were down 11 at half that we had our best basketball still in us. I’m proud of how the guys responded coming out of the locker room. To out score them by 13 in the second half, on the road, speaks to who we are as a team. Obviously, Mekhi’s 3 with 3.2 seconds left was huge, but everyone came up big in this one.” – Layton coach Kelby Miller
