@realOCsports @ESPN700 @OCShow801 The Masters is statistically the hardest venue to even get access to. If I got to be there for a Sunday round with a pimento sandwich in my left hand and an ice cream sandwich in my right, I’m set for life!

The Bingham Miners are the Queens of 6A for the first time since 2020!

The Lady Miners knock off the 4-time defending champions with an absolutely incredible defensive performance!

The Girls 5A Championship comes down to the West Panthers and the Pleasant Grove Vikings!

West is heading back to the 5A State Championship game as they knocked off the 3-time defending champion Bountiful in an absolutely classic game!

West got their normal production from Kylee Falatea but it was the play from Laite Latu and Tiana Fa who both had stretches in this game where they were dominate!

@kslsports @TABBank @natethatcher15

[KSL Sports Rewind @KSLSportsRewind]

Milika Satuala's final game in a Bountiful uniform didn't end in her 4th straight Championship, but it did add an exclamation mark to her incredible legacy she is leaving behind at Bountiful.

Milika showed the heart and determination that has defined her entire career today as she brought the Redhawks back from an 18 point deficit to force overtime even after receiving a massive gash to her head.

Milika it has been an absolute pleasure covering your career and we are so excited to see you at the next level!

Adelaide Stevenson was shooting daggers from 3 today in Bountiful's quarterfinal win over Maple Mountain.

In a game where Milika Satuala went for 28, it felt like Stevenson's 3's squashed every run that Maple Mountain tried to put together.

Bountiful will take on West in the Semi-Finals on Thursday!

[Nate Thatcher @natethatcher15]

A fun game for my inaugural call in my favorite basketball arena!

[KSL Sports Rewind @KSLSportsRewind]

What a game between Wasatch and West to get the 5A Girls Quarterfinals underway at the Huntsman Center!

Both teams traded blows all game long and it was only fitting that it had to go to Overtime to decide it.

Kylee Falatea was the difference maker going for 21 points to help West outlast the Wasps in a thriller!

@kslsports @TABBank @natethatcher15

[KSL Sports Rewind @KSLSportsRewind]

THE GOAL HEARD AROUND THE WORLD 🥇🥇 #WINTEROLYMPICS

[KSL Sports Rewind @KSLSportsRewind]

Isaiah Drisdom is HIM!

Drisdom's 2nd half in Highland 2nd Round game was stuff legends are made from.

With Highland trailing by 10 in the 3rd Quarter, Isaiah put on his cape, put the team on his shoulders, and went to work.

Before we head into our postseason coverage we thought we would take a look back at some of our favorite moments from the regular season!

The talent level of Utah High School Basketball continues to soar to new heights year after year and we are so fortunate to get to be a part of it!

Thank you to all of the Schools, ADs, Coaches, Players and Fans for always being so great to work with and be around. You all make covering your programs one of the best jobs in the world!

With all due respect to all of the previous Herriman Mustangs who were elite scorers in their time, and trust us, they've had many, none of them have been as dynamically elite or possess the pure shooting touch that Carlo Mulford has put on display in his years at Herriman.

And now, the record book backs that up as well!

Mulford set the school record for points scored at Herriman, doing so in every asset of the game while also completing the season sweep of the Westlake Thunder!

Herriman is Co-Region Champion of Region 2 and are heading into the playoffs as one of the hottest teams in 6A!

[Rob Perez @WorldWideWob]

"...the Jazz removed two of the team's top players...before the beginning of the 4Q and did not return them to the game"

1) Ok so if Will Hardy sits Markkanen the entire 3Q and plays him in the 4Q instead, is that acceptable?
2) They won that Heat game!
3) They won that Heat game because Brice Sensabaugh is nails and came through with several big shots. Is he not permitted to be the focal point of an offense without the presence of 'stars' on the floor concurrently?

I have more questions now than before they addressed/penalized this.

[KSL Sports Rewind @KSLSportsRewind]

If there was a team in 5A all other teams should be very worried about if they get hot, its the Orem Tigers,

Orem put themselves through a guantlet in the preseason and have dealt with their fair share of adversity but this team is as talented as ever and now with a healthy Simeon Suguturaga leading the charge they are ready to show just how dangerous these Tigers can be!

[KSL Sports Rewind @KSLSportsRewind]

Our final 4 games for tomorrow night features Highland welcoming in Viewmont, Orem taking on Pleasant Grove, Judge heading down to take on Lone Peak, and one of the best rivalries in the state as Woods Cross takes on Bountiful!

All games tip at 7PM and if you can't make it out to any of them join our crews LIVE on https://t.co/IYDLjfIYRf!
