This week, high school football fans in SALT LAKE CITY are in for a treat as two rival schools, Bountiful and Viewmont, prepare to face off in a thrilling match. Both teams are entering this game with shiny 3-0 records, making this the perfect kickoff for Region 5 play.
The atmosphere will be electric, as this showdown takes place just under two miles apart from each other, adding to the spirit of the crosstown rivalry. The stakes are high; the winner will take significant strides toward claiming the region title, while the losing team will have some strong motivations to recover in the upcoming weeks.
Bountiful enters this game ranked No. 6 in the KSL.com Top 20+1 rankings and is viewed as the favorite to emerge with the region title, though it will be a tough road ahead against an ever-improving Viewmont team, which recently joined the top 20 at No. 19.
The Redhawks are coming off a thrilling last-minute victory against Olympus, winning with a field goal that kept their perfect season intact. Previously, they edged out Farmington in a tight 5-point contest in Week 2. This has raised questions about whether their recent successes can withstand the pressure from their rivals.
On the other hand, Viewmont boasts a series of impressive blowout wins, albeit against less competitive teams. Most recently, they trounced Taylorsville with an eye-catching 49-7 victory at home. The Vikings are hungry for their first 4-0 start since 2006 when they went on an impressive 6-0 run. The enthusiasm surrounding this game is palpable, and fans are eager to see which team will rise to the occasion.
This crosstown rivalry game is not just a contest; it’s a celebration of local sports and community pride. Other exciting matches across the state will also get attention this week, as fans gear up for an action-packed Friday night.
