Top-seeded Ridgeline put together an emphatic and dominating victory over No. 5 Crimson Cliffs Thursday night in the 4A semifinals at Rice-Eccles Stadium, cruising to a 35-10 victory to punch its ticket to next week’s state championship game. “That was a special night. Crimson Cliffs is a heck of a program and a heck of a team. They had our full attention, and we knew we had to come out with a bunch of energy and win the line of scrimmage,” said Ridgeline head coach Travis Cox.” “The first drive set us up really nicely and gave us the momentum we needed for the rest of the game.” All 35 of Ridgeline’s points came in the first half behind the play of quarterback Crew Cox and standout running back Noah Fiefia. Ridgeline had complete control in all three phases of the game. Fiefia could not be contained in the run game and finished with 161 rushing yards and three touchdowns. Ridgeline’s offense as a whole moved the ball down the field at will, going for 302 total yards in the half.
