Here's the Top 9 Plays

9. Nathan Rogers - Cedar Reds

This was a nice little coast-to-coast bucket off of a steal. Rogers is averaging 10 points per game for the Reds, 5 rebounds, 7 assists, and 2 steals. That's a pretty stacked box score every night.

8. Olivia Hamlin and Joey Jensen - Snow Canyon Warriors 

Snow Canyon Girls are 3-0 in Region 10 play because of plays like this. High pressure defense. The Warriors are relentless at getting deflections and steals from baseline to baseline. And of course Olivia Hamlin is one of the best players in the state.

7. Kyle Lemke - Dixie Flyers

Lemke had 8 blocks in this game, had to choose one of them. This one is impressive because it's an in-bounds play and he gets out on shooter. He has awesome reaction time and a gift for timing.

6. Chomp Jones - Desert Hills

The old "poke & go" here by Chomp. Awesome lead pass by Boston Holbrook.

Jones is averaging around 10 points per game for the Thunder and has been really good in transition whether finishing off live ball turnovers like this play, hitting threes (he's made 24 this year), or finding his teammates.

5. Phoenix McWillis - Crimson Cliffs

This is a classic Lebron chase down block. (It may have been called a goal tend but the Rush doesn't care!). What a show of athleticism and not giving up on a play.

4. Jacie Riding - Desert Hills and Kanyon Dickinson - Pine View

A couple of sharpshooters here. Riding hits a pull up three from NBA range, and Dickinson hits a dagger in front of his opponents student section. Lots of great long ball shooters this year in region.

3. Phoenix McWillis - Crimson Cliffs

Again. Two blocks on one play.

2. Cayleb Jackman - Hurricane

The steal and the flush! Jackman looked like a young Tom Chambers on this play.

1. Owen Mackey - Snow Canyon

This was pretty obvious. Mackey might be on the all-time region leaper team.
