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.

Three weekends into the football season felt more like three months had already been played when Lone Peak welcomed Corner Canyon to Highland Friday. If not for the warm summer evening, it would have been hard to differentiate the Knights’ 28-21 victory over the Chargers from a November state tournament contest. Corner Canyon entered the matchup touted as the best team in the state, coming off arguably the biggest regular season win in Utah high school football history last week when it took down nationally ranked IMG Academy out of Florida, but that did not bother the Knights. “This team believes,” Lone Peak coach Bart Brockbank said about his squad following its upset win. “I thought maybe we’d have to do something extra to get them excited and everything, (but) they’re just all business.” The Knights’ defense gave the Chargers the business throughout the night, with one of its biggest plays coming on the final snap of the game when junior defensive lineman Tag Zundel sacked Corner Canyon quarterback Helaman Casuga to give the Knights the victory.

Aurora, Colo. -- Angry Aurorans on social media poked fun at the local news media Friday as more information came out about Venezuelan gangs on the Front Range. Mike Coffman, Aurora mayor, posted on Facebook that the city will use court orders to shut down additional apartment complexes that have been infiltrated by the gangs. It contradicted comments made by Colorado Gov. Jared Polis, who told the New York Post the gang problem was a figment of Aurora council member Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.

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.

The Lens

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.
