It was a slow start for Northridge, but the Knights never gave up, battled back, and eventually pick up a nice region 5 victory over Viewmont 46-44. Trailing 15-3 after one quarter of play, Northridge outscored the Vikings 33-19 in the second and third quarters combined to take a slight two-point lead into the fourth quarter. “Viewmont was the aggressor the majority of the first half, they got all the lose balls and rebounds, but after chipping away in the second quarter we committed to out-hustle them the entire second half," said Northridge coach Chris Smith. "Because of that we were able to squeeze out the win.” Each of the first two region games for Northridge have come down to the wire, and each time, the Knights have found a way to win. They’ll look to keep that streak alive Friday as they travel to Woods Cross. Viewmont was led by Emma Mulitalo and Mara Mickelson, who scored 15 and 12 points respectively. The road doesn’t get any easier for the Vikings, as the next game pits Viewmont against the other unbeaten region 5 team, the Bountiful Redhawks.
