PLEASANT VIEW -- All Day.

Consecutive three-touchdown games and back-to-back 100-yard rushing performances by the Darts' Tyrel Day, and it is only week 3 of the high school football season.

Day, a senior tailback, rushed for a career-high 144 yards and three touchdowns on 20 carries Friday in Davis High's decisive 30-7 Region 1 blowout of the Warriors at Earl Jones Field.

GARLAND -- On a warm Friday night at Bear Field, the Golden Spike game was played, and the Bear River Bears and Box Elder Bees battled valiantly to the end, as both teams were not going to give in.

CLEARFIELD -- The Fremont Silver Wolves dominated throughout the night, led by running back Nick Vigil, who had his way on the ground with a pair of touchdown runs Friday in a 24-12 Region 1 victory over Clearfield.

Silver Wolves quarterback Aaron Van Woerkom also through a 15-yard touchdown pass to Rowdy Stucki.

MORGAN -- For years the Wasatch Wasps have given Morgan fits on the football field. On Friday, the Trojans paid them back.

With a surprisingly efficient passing game and their usual bruising rushing attack, the Trojans ran all over the Wasps, 49-15, to remain undefeated through three preseason games.

I used to make fun of "old-timers" who would shake their heads at the sight of progress -- or at least how we younger folks defined progress. What they thought was ridiculous we thought was simply the way things were. Well, now that I'm getting closer to "old-timer" status myself I'm starting to shake my head, too. And it's this whole high school sports on ESPN-thing that bothers me.

LAYTON -- Allora Tanner was a proud spectator Saturday when the Knights won the Round Table Rumble.
