Region 9 Hoops Tonight! – Southern Utah

Snow Canyon at Crimson Cliffs - ESPN 97.7

Presented by Ideal Home and Auto Paint!

The first time these two teams played it was the best game of the year. There have been other awesome games but none that ended on a buzzer beating three pointer. Snow Canyon was down two points with seven seconds left when Owen Mackay nailed a three to win the game.

Crimson scratched and clawed their way back into the game in the fourth quarter and got a lead thanks to a clutch jump shot from Sean Felts.

Drake Carroll lead the Mustangs with 25 points in the game and they also got an incredible performance from Noah Marsden who went off in the fourth quarter and finished with 23 points.

Crimson Cliffs is playing really well right now despite just losing to Dixie. They played the Flyers tough all night, but Dixie took off in the fourth quarter and made it double digit victory.

Crimson beat Pine View before that by one point in a thriller at home. Trevor Taylor scored on a drive with only seconds on the clock to secure the win. They beat Desert Hills in overtime on a last second score by Drake Carroll who was assisted by Taylor.

So Crimson is used to being in close games this year and is 2-1 in region games that are one possession differentials.

Snow Canyon has won three of their last four games and is coming off a 64-52 win over Desert Hills.

This should be an awesome game.
