Bountiful v Alta

Bountiful's opening game was against Alta today at Cottonwood High School. B-town thought they were the lucky ones to get to play on the artificial turf until they stepped foot onto the field. It was burning hot and the heat coming off of it was enough to bake the boys, but the game must go on.

Bountiful's start was shaky and a bit frustrating for the fans. The night before the game B-town had a huge mess up with their jerseys and all the boys had to give up their numbers and get new jerseys. It made it impossible to know who was who during the game. Due to the confusion in numbers the wrong were boys running on and off the field. This lead to off sides, 12 men on the field...you name it B-town did it! Alta took advantage on the first play to score a touchdown, it was not looking good. But at half time Bountiful pulled it together and came out ready to stomp on the Hawks. Munk who now wears the number 20 was on fire, from the heat, and from the drive to win the game. He made some key tackles, and was in on a sack of the Alta quarterback. The game came down to 2 points and B-town beats the Hawks 18-16. It was a close ending and the fans were yelling and ranting by the end of the game.
Hunter is the red guy wrapped around his waist

When Munk was asked how he felt about the game he said, "I missed some tackles and I forgot to be on the line at first, but I made the adjustments and next game I will not be as nervous." Hunter must be doing something right becuase he is the starting Defensive End (right side), Kick Off, Kick Return, Punt Recieve, Punt Return, and was put in as Full Back for yesterday's game.

Next week they travel to Alta to play a different Alta team, and hope to smash them from the start.
