School Realignment: How it will effect Payson High School

Submitted by kate.searle on

The UHSAA has changed the sports boundaries for all the schools in the state of Utah. This change affects almost every school, and every sport.

But how does this change affect Payson High School exactly? We are again facing off against Spanish Fork, Salem, and Springville, who are our three biggest rivals. According to Coach Chapman, our school is back where it belongs. We are home. The biggest reason why Payson coaches and administration are excited is because it means less travel for our sports teams, and the rivalry games are back. 

Mr. McGuire said, “I’m excited!  I think it is a great thing for our school, and it just means our programs will have to step it up.” 

Our football coach, Coach Chapman said, “It’s just like putting on an old pair of shoes.”  He expects that the toughest football opponent will be Springville.
