In a battle for sole position of second place in region 9, the Salem Hills SkyHawks used a dominating effort in the second and third quarter to take down Maple Mountain 70-65. The Golden Eagles jumped out to a 10 point lead after the first quarter, but a 21-7 advantage in the second quarter helped Salem Hills take the lead for good. Chase DeGraffenried was huge for the SkyHawks, tallying 21 points. “It was a good team win,” said Salem Hills coach Blake Francom. “We got a good boost from our bench in the second quarter and we were able to make enough plays down the stretch for the win.” With just two region games remaining in the regular season, Salem Hills will now cheer for Maple Mountain in their next game, as the Golden Eagles host region leading Springville on Tuesday.
