BOUNTIFUL — With both the Christmas and New Year’s holiday now behind them, many local high schools that took the entire holiday break off are back in action.
The schedule will feature a host of teams from south Davis County on the basketball court, swimming pool, wrestling mat or other type of arena for the first time in at least one week. Davis, Viewmont, Bountiful and Woods Cross will be preparing for region play.
Wednesday night saw the return of Bountiful boys’ basketball and the Viewmont boys’ and girls’ basketball teams, with the Braves battling Olympus at home and the Vikings boys’ team facing Syracuse on the road.
The Lady Vikings, 8-2 on the season, faced off against Northridge.
All scores from those games are posted at davisclipper.com.
Davis and Woods Cross returned to the floor on Thursday. They took on Mountain Crest and Box Elder, respectively, on the road.
While it was a short rest for the Lady Darts, who last played on Dec. 29, Woods Cross’ game against the Bees will come after more than a two-week layoff.
The team last played on Dec. 18 against the Lady Darts.
