Game Details - Boys Volleyball

Top seeded Maple Mountain dominated its first day of the 5A tournament with two 3-0 sweeps, including a 25-10, 25-15, 25-17 win over No. 9 Viewmont in the 5A quarterfinals. "It's a fun environment with all these games going on at the same time," said Maple Mountain head coach Geoff Wright. "There's great talent all over the place. We haven't seen Viewmont before and they battled Alta and they play different than how we've been playing down in our region. We're excited to play a new team." Taft Hillman led the Golden Eagles in blocks and aces with six aces and four blocks in the win. Maple Mountain's Trey Thornton led in kills with 13 on 27 attempts, Johan Stoop, Mac Hillman and Gavin Pricer all had five kills. "A lot of the chemistry is coming together and just being a family," Wright said. "I like how they just build, support each other and work together as brothers." With the win Maple Mountain advanced to Saturdays 5A semifinal at UVU. "We're going to try to not be overconfident of course, Saturday is going to have some good matches," said Wright. "We won't be overconfident, but you have to come in with confidence that you're going to win."
