BOUNTIFUL — The Viewmont Lady Vikings lacrosse team ended the regular season with a Division II crown and the hopes of getting far into the lacrosse playoffs.

And in the team’s first full year of existence, they’ve continued to surprise the lacrosse community, beating the Davis Darts 16-8 at Juan Diego Catholic High School Tuesday night.

The win gives the Lady Vikes their first chance at a state title in their initial year.

They’ll take on the Waterford Ravens Saturday at Westlake High School.

The Lady Vikings started their season by winning four of their first five games before dropping two of the next three.

A pair of wins to close out the regular season gave them a 7-3 overall record and a division title, earning them a playoff spot against Lehi in the opening round.

A 20-8 blowout victory gave them a date Tuesday with the Davis Darts, who themselves finished with a 7-3 overall record.

In another heated rivalry match with each other, Viewmont ended up pulling ahead to take the win, doubling up the Darts to earn the finals berth against Waterford.

The Ravens finished the regular season with a 6-3 overall record, winning two straight games to help them get into the playoffs.

Their road started with the Weber Warriors in a quarter final matchup.

A win gave Waterford a semifinal date with the Orem Tigers.

After a very close game ended with a 10-7 win, the Ravens made themselves the opponent of the Lady Vikings for the right to be crowned as high school lacrosse champions.

With both teams having near-identical records entering the Saturday final, fans are sure to be in for a good state title game.

The game will be played at 10 a.m. Saturday. Westlake High School is located at 99 N. 200 West in Saratoga Springs.
