5A Football Championship

Names to watch in 5A Championship

ALTA HAWKS:
Dan Adams - Monster defensive end who makes life for QB's absolutely miserable.

Brady Davies - Adams' counterpart on defense is lightning quick and very tough on the outside.

Ammon Olsen - Leading 5A passer has a great pocket presence and delivers the ball quickly and on target.

BINGHAM MINERS:
LT Filiaga - Heart of the defense and a leader on both ends of the ball. Great blocking back and very instinctive on defense. One of the nation's top recruits. Carries a 4.0 GPA.
Harvey Langi - 174 yards and two TD's in a rout of Skyline in the 5A semi-finals. Has carried 174 times for 1269 yards this season with 17 TD's.
Talai Livai - Quick, agile lineman whose senior leadership has been critical in the tough games up front. Great in space when pulling and solid on the run and pass defense.



Keys to the game:
ALTA: Stop the running attack and keep the Bingham defense off the field. On offense they will need to get rid of the ball quickly downfield to keep the Miner's on their heels.

BINGHAM: The exact opposite. Keep the ball out of the hands of Ammon Olsen who leads the 5A passing yards (2,481)and has killer efficiency (.625). He's just as dangerous standing the pocket as he is when he get's flushed out. Contain, contain, contain!
