September 2009

Our girl’s tennis team squared off against Skyview August 25, 2009, at 3:30pm here at Maple Mountain High School. The competition was intense and a hard-hitting fight from beginning to end. Although our girls may not have won, they still put up a tough match against Skyview and exemplified good sportsmanship. Calley Bankhead (1st Varsity Singles) defeated her opponent in a tie breaker. Anna Cronquist (2nd Varsity Singles) also battled against her foe, but ended up losing in another tie breaker.

Maple Mountain Cross Country attended its first ever meet on Tuesday, August 25, at Salem Hills High School, and stunned the region.

Maple Mountain placed a very close second for boys, just a few points behind rival Springville High. The girls dominated the competition and took first place, prevailing over all the other teams. Maple Mountain Boy’s team was lead by captains Holden Adams, Brent Strong, and Spencer Hansen.
