High school baseball: Big 1st inning punches Corner Canyon’s ticket to 6A championship series
A big 7-run first inning helped propel Corner Canyon past Mountain Ridge 10-8 Thursday to secure a date with Lehi in the best-of-three 6A championship series.

Corner Canyon was led at the top of the lineup by Garrett Downing and Ryder Florence. Downing went 1 for 3 with a run scored and two RBIs, while Florence went 2 for 5, also scoring a run and adding two RBIs.

But when senior Ben Harley’s corner kick Thursday in the 6A state championship match went right where it needed to go, it got booted out of the scrum into the waiting feet of Larsen, who fired it through the hands of Farmington’s goalie for American Fork’s lone goal.
