Intensity, sweat, blood, and a drive for the game. Our Payson Lions Soccer team has dominated the field and taken over the region. With a record of 8-0, the boys succeeded in becoming region champions.
The team went undefeated in the region, and fought a hard battle in state.
As the school year comes to an end, it’s important to recognize all of our incredible sports teams and how well they did this year. We’ve had a lot more region championships this year than we have had in years past. Let’s take a look at how well each team has done.
Wrestling: The most outstanding team this year is the wrestling team. Not only did they take first in region, but they also went on to become state champions! Some individuals also took 1st at state such as Hagen Loveless and Jed Loveless.
Hard work, hours of practice, and strained vocal chords finally paid off on April 26 when the PHS Chamber Choir, along with a few other select choir students went to State Solo and Ensemble at Orem High. Despite the early hours in which they performed, the students’ voices were all warmed up and ready to sing.
The Payson High Wrestling team is still on the prowl as the spring sports season comes to a close. Though the high school season may only run through the fall, that doesn’t stop the team from consistently trying to better their selves. With open gym practices every night, and the boys putting in the extra effort, the team is undoubtedly ready to pin down the fall season.
Payson High School’s performing arts groups have put the fine in arts throughout the year. Choir, Drill, Dance Company, Band, Color Guard, Orchestra, Cheer, Drama and Pipe Band have had many competitions and/or performances throughout the year and have done very well.
