5 For The Fight Hoopfest Preview

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>What a way to start the season as some of the local powerhouse programs get it going against some of the best in the country. We also have a treat as some of the best players in the country will make their way to Utah to show-out!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Monday-November 20th</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 1- Pleasant Grove vs. Jordan</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 2- #11 Sunrise Christian (KS) vs. Alta</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This will be a good game to see where a few of our best players stack up against one of the best teams in the country. Alta will be playing with hous emoney as many do not expect them to pull this out but we look forward to seeing what players like [player_tooltip player_id='1057035' first='Ace' last='Reiser'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1298532' first='Jaxon' last='Johnson'] can do. Look for a player like [player_tooltip player_id='1057047' first='Carter' last='Doleac'] to really make an impact on this game in the paint hauling in boards. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 3- Simeon (IL) vs. Lone Peak</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lone Peak might be without two of their best players but it gives their role players an opportunity to put in work. This game is a great opportunity for them.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 4- #2 Link Academy (MO) vs. CIA</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 5- #1 Montverde Academy (FL) vs. #7 Wasatch Academy</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Wasatch Academy takes on the #1 team in the country and they look to make this a solid game. [player_tooltip player_id='2026100' first='John' last='Mobley'] Jr. and [player_tooltip player_id='1253127' first='Chris' last='Nwuli'] should make a big difference in this game that the tigers did not have last year. Look for [player_tooltip player_id='1532052' first='Isiah' last='Harwell'] to also make his presence felt along with [player_tooltip player_id='2202061' first='Fischer' last='Brown']'s shooting. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Tuesday-November 21st</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 1- Simeon (IL) vs. Rock Creek (MD)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 2- Wheeler (GA) vs. Corner Canyon</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Chargers where a team that really stood out winning big games last year and they will not sneak up on anyone this year but look for them to really make a run and this could be our first look at a healthy squad that they will put out there on the floor for the first time. They will be headlining with [player_tooltip player_id='1056969' first='Brody' last='Kozlowski'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1877115' first='Taylor' last='Feroah'] but they have some dudes that are starting to come along like [player_tooltip player_id='1190620' first='Bryton' last='Valdes'] and Derelle Desire. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 3- Orangeville (CA) vs. #7 Wasatch Academy</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 4- #1 Montverde (FL) vs. American Fork</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>American Fork can hang with anyone and that is what they will try and do as they face a giant task in this game. They will need a lot from [player_tooltip player_id='1115954' first='Reece' last='Dent'], [player_tooltip player_id='1057025' first='Diego' last='Mulford'] and [player_tooltip player_id='2089443' first='Jax' last='Clark'] new players that will need to produce to help out [player_tooltip player_id='1057050' first='Tiger' last='Cuff'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1538434' first='Blake' last='Rawson']. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 5- #2 Link Academy (MO) vs. #9 AZ Compass</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Wednesday-November 22nd</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 1- #9 AZ Compass vs. #11 Sunrise Christian (KS)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 2- Rock Creek (MD) vs. Wheeler (GA)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 3- Cyprus vs. Springville</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Good game for both teams but Springville should have an upper hand in size for sure as they have [player_tooltip player_id='1278439' first='Jamyn' last='Sondrup'] who will be a load to stop. Look out for their guards to have an impact against Cyprus. On the other side of the ball Cyprus will need ot get Koli Fosita going early. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 4- Lone Peak vs. Timpview</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This could be a great game as Timpview has some dudes that could elevate them in this game and it starts with [player_tooltip player_id='1278448' first='Dean' last='Rueckert']. He might drop a ton of points the way he plays. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 5- Corner Canyon vs. Orem</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Corner is too much but it is going to be nice seeing [player_tooltip player_id='1164726' first='Jax' last='Allen'] run with this new team. [player_tooltip player_id='1260479' first='Chance' last='Dastrup'] will need to be big in this one as will [player_tooltip player_id='1278444' first='Kai' last='Wesley'].</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game 6- American Fork vs. Alta</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This is going to be the game of the week. Get your popcorn out because you do not get matchups like this so come and enjoy watching two well coached teams play against each other. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
