The shot in the second quarter Tuesday was a sign that this year’s first-round game of the Class 5A state tournament would turn out better for Corner Canyon High School. Having absorbed a major upset last February, the Chargers opened the 2019 event with a 62-48 win over Springville, with Martin producing 25 points, eight rebounds and four assists.
The Draper school will play Farmington in Thursday’s quarterfinals at Salt Lake Community College.
