Game Details - Boys Basketball

Led by a strong first quarter, Herriman stayed ahead and managed to claim an upset in 6A Region 3 with a 69-66 win over Copper Hills. Junior Ike Palmer and freshman Carlo Mulford each scored 20 points to lead the Mustangs, while junior Malcolm Johnson scored 14 points, and sophomore Cale Barclay added another 10. Senior forward Ashtyn Howick scored 20 points to lead the Grizzlies, along with 13 points from junior Logan Weidauer and 12 from senior Kyson Hymas. It was the second-straight game decided by a single possession for the Mustangs, who lost by a point to Riverton the week prior. The win also avenged Herriman's previous 22-point loss to the Grizzlies last month. "Other than a 5-point deficit at the very start of the game, Herriman led the whole way. Carlo Mulford and Ike Palmer led the way on offense in the fourth quarter for Herriman to secure the win. Malcolm Johnson and Cale Barclay made some great defensive plays down the stretch," Herriman coach Lance Gummersall said.
