High school football: Timpview rallies past Skyridge in thrilling season opener
After trailing for the entirety of the game, Timpview got its first lead of the game with nine seconds left Thursday night when Carson Rasmussen was able to connect with standout wide receiver Jaron Pula on a short 1-yard touchdown reception in the dying moments of the game to complete the comeback over Skyridge, 33-29. “Carson has had some very good games against Skyridge in the past. For him to be our quarterback tonight was very comforting to us as coaches. He responded, he did his thing and everyone else was playing into him. We saw it in the scrimmages and practices that we had, but for him to have it in this setting was nice for everyone to just buy into what he can do,” said Timpview head coach Donny Atuaia. Timpview has stormed all the way back and taken a 33-29 lead with six seconds remaining.

Students heading to class in the Alpine School District could be graduating from completely different district.
