    Timpview’s girls crushed the competition during Saturday’s 5A state track meet at BYU, winning by nearly 100 points, while Maple Mountain’s boys narrowly hung on to capture its first state championship since 2012.

    For Timpview, it was a satisfying repeat that showcased its depth and talent.

    “It’s a team effort in every sense of the word for sure,” said Timpview coach Jaimie Ribera.

    Timpview finished with five individual winners and four relay wins in a dominant display for the T-Birds who racked up 158 team points, with Highland in second place with 60 points.

    Maple Mountain, meanwhile, won with depth in key events and a bit of good fortune that could’ve altered the entire complexion of what team took the victory lap around BYU’s track stadium.

    Regardless, it was a title in which the foundation was laid back in the fall.

    “Going back to the fall with our boys cross country team winning the 5A title, that added a little more motivation for a lot of these kids saying ‘hey, we have a good distance team.’ We knew we had a lot of sprinters coming back and so I think there was this belief that there’s a chance for them to win the state title,” said Maple Mountain coach Jeff Lake.

    Banks Jackson came up huge for Maple Mountain as he won both the 200 and 400 meters and then also anchored the Golden Eagles’ 4x200 winning relay team.

    Jackson’s win in the 200 meters altered the match. West Jordan’s Dominic Overby was the favorite to win the match, but he injured himself on the home stretch and didn’t finish. Had he won and earned 10 more team points for his team, the Jaguars would’ve ended the meet with 73.5 points instead of 63.5 points. Maple Mountain won with 72 points. Woods Cross was second with 66 points.

    The unfortunate injury for Overby confirmed why coaches never like to project too far ahead in a meet when it comes to probably points. Nothing is guaranteed.

    Overby still played a huge role in West Jordan’s third-place finish as he won the 5A long jump on Thursday and 100 meters earlier on Saturday. He finished second to Jackson in the 400 meters.

    The other double winner during the 5A meet was Olympus’ JoJo Jourdon finishing first in the 1,600 and 3,200 meters.

    The lone double winner in the girls meet was Jane Hedengren with titles in the 800 and 3,200 meters. She didn’t race in the 1,600 meters two weeks after breaking the overall state record in the event. She set a new 3,200 overall state record on Thursday, and was hoping to make it a trifecta with a record-breaking performance in the 800 meters.

    She narrowly came up short with a time of 2:07.85

    Timpview’s other individual winners were Katie Hutchings in the 200 meters, Lily Alder in the 1,600 meters and Annie Nuttall in the 300 hurdles.

    Much of the success starts with the leadership of the junior Hedengren.

    “She really does stay humble and hungry, and really does care about the team and shows up to practice and isn’t too good for anything,” said Ribera.
