No. 5 North Sanpete punched its ticket to the 3A semifinals with a 3-0 sweep over Region 3A south foe No. 4 Juab. The Hawks won the three sets 26-24, 25-19 and 25-23. “Juab is a good team, a first-year program for them and they put up good fights both times we played them,” said North Sanpete head coach Austin Ison. “We knew that we just had to match their energy and just play.” The Hawks were led by Carson Bench with 14 kills in the quarterfinal. Bench also had 14 kills in its second-round sweep over No. 12 Juan Diego. Cole Booher also helped out on the net with six kills of his own. North Sanpete is on the hunt to redeem last years’ 3A championship loss where it was swept by Grantsville in the finals. The Cowboys upset top seeded Ogden in its quarterfinal match and North Sanpete will get a rematch of last years’ championship game. “We're playing really, really well,” Ison said. “I feel like we've seen glimpses of this all season and they're starting to peak right when it counts the most. It’s just players stepping up.”
