The Leopards were relentless from the opening seconds as they earned an impressive 72-65 victory over Corner Canyon Saturday night at Salt Lake Community College and won their second straight Class 5A girls’ basketball title.
But the Chargers also showed they could dish out pressure as well as they rallied in the second half in an intense battle that saw both teams press all over the court.
Led by sisters Deserae and Lealani Falatea, Margarita Satini, Lina Tausinga and center Precious Faamausli, the Leopards deployed a defense that put pressure on a good Corner Canyon team from the game’s opening seconds.
