Deseret News

For one half Saturday afternoon, the Morgan Trojans played like the top team in Utah’s 3A ranks. The other half? They had their fans sitting on the edge of their seats inside Pocatello’s Idaho Central Credit Union Dome, and they didn’t feel comfortable until Lincoln Gilson intercepted a pass with less than two minutes remaining to secure a 24-20 win over the Skyline (Idaho) Grizzlies. “The kids have learned to trust to each other,” said Morgan coach Jared Barlow, whose team improved to 3-0. “We’ve been preaching that to them the whole time and they look to each other to see who can make the big plays.” Gilson, in fact, made most of them. A senior wide receiver on offense, he had 10 catches for 203 yards and two touchdowns. That fact, however, was overshadowed when he stepped in front of a Skyline receiver just after the Grizzlies had scored to get within one touchdown, recovered an onside kick and then lofted a long pass to about the 20-yard line that appeared open.

Woods Cross, UT

POCATELLO, Idaho — The Woods Cross Wildcats got another opportunity to play a season opener Friday afternoon. Playing inside the newly renovated Idaho Central Credit Union Arena on the Idaho State University campus, the Wildcats ventured against one of Idaho’s more talented teams and, despite neither school knowing much about the other, the Mountain View Mavericks rallied for a 24-21 win at the annual Rocky Mountain Rumble. The Rumble is a 17-year-old showcase initiated by Pocatello’s Highland High School to invite out-of state powers to compete against some of southern Idaho’s best. This year’s two-day event has six Idaho schools taking on three Utah teams, as well as two from Nevada and one out of Alaska. Junior quarterback Hank Nelson threw for 153 yards and the Boise-area school took advantage of a failed fake punt in the fourth quarter to score the go-ahead touchdown with just over five minutes left, and that was the difference in the game.

WHITE MOUNTAIN—“That’s a lot of horses,” lamented Cheyenne resident Robyn Smith from a high-desert ridgeline. It wasn’t her first exasperated exclamation. “Argh, oh crap,” was her immediate reaction to learning a federal judge had given the Bureau of Land Management the OK to proceed with plans to fully remove two wild horse herds from the landscape in southwest Wyoming.

Don Hall is an avid snowmobiler, but instead of heading for the hills each winter in search of deep powder, he takes an older snowmachine to lower elevations nearer the snow line. There’s a reason the Riverton resident prefers the lower zones despite the rocks, fences and sage most riders avoid: That’s where the coyotes are.

Wyoming allows snowmobilers to run down wildlife. Despite global outrage, it may stay legal.

During my childhood, when my family visited relatives “across the river,” in Bayou Plaquemine, Bayou Goula, Caddo, the Pointe, and White Castle, my siblings and I would sometimes race up and down the levees, some distance away from the cows grazing there. At the summit of the hill, you could see the Mississippi River waters through stands of trees and brush. It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.

The driver of a bakery goods truck who Denver police crashed into head-first will receive a $350,000 payday from the city. The settlement to Christopher Cordova appears on the consent agenda of Monday’s City Council meeting. Items are the consent calendar are considered routine and generally pass in a block vote. However, council members Shontel Lewis and Sarah Parady regularly call out the settlements to draw attention to them.

Year in and year out, the Southern Conference is the most parity-filled league in the FCS, top to bottom. A team that seems to be in the bottom third can (and will) rise up and knock off a team in the top third, and there are countless examples. Even the Big Sky and MVFC can’t boast that.
