Ogden • As the crow flies, it’s less than five miles between the high schools in American Fork and Pleasant Grove. But the two schools had to go much farther north to settle who would break a long, long drought in boys’ basketball. And who would be the best of the best in Class 6A for the 2018-19 season.
It was American Fork (24-3) that won its first title since 1979 after beating the Vikings 66-57 at Weber State University.
“Forty years, forty years. We talked about it every day, coach talked about history,” said Caveman senior Trey Stewart, who finished with 18 points in the win.
