In the 3A State Tournament quarterfinals, No. 9 Ogden travels to No. 1 Cedar City, seeking to overturn their historical 0-4 record against the Reds. This marks their third playoff meeting, with Cedar having previously won, most notably a 27-16 clash in 2008 after fending off a late Ogden rally. Ogden enters after a narrow 14-12 victory over Canyon View, which spoiled a potential rematch between the two Cedar City high schools. With a (7-4, 2-3 3A North) season record, the Tigers have scored 258 points while conceding 186. Quarterback Blake Weston is key, registering 1,332 passing yards and 12 touchdowns. Nash Bockwoldt leads the receiving corps with 391 yards and 7 touchdowns. In the backfield, Anderson Curry contributes 478 rushing yards and 9 touchdowns. Defensively, Jayden Long anchors with 53 tackles and 2 interceptions. Cedar City, undefeated at (10-0, 6-0 3A South), enters having benefited from a first-round bye. They've tallied 454 points while allowing 194, showing offensive and defensive prowess. Quarterback Everett Kelling has amassed 2,091 passing yards and 25 touchdowns, adding 840 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns. Braxton DeMille supports with 1,179 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns. Among receivers, Slade Parsons leads with 762 yards and 9 touchdowns, while Dax Wankier shines defensively, recording 97 tackles. As they prepare for this high-stakes matchup, Ogden seeks further momentum, while Cedar aims to maintain their perfect record and dominance over Ogden. The winner will advance to the semifinals to face either No. 4 Juab or No. 5 Grantsville, moving one step closer to the 3A championship.
