VERNAL, Utah — In the 4A boys game between the Park City Miners and Uintah High School Utes on Oct. 15, the Miners defeated the Utes 42-0 in the regular season finale to secure a first-round playoff.

The shutout was the first of the season for Park City’s defense. 

The Miners’ offense was led by star running back Eli Warner, who scored three touchdowns (two receiving and one rushing). Quarterback Josh Hofer threw three passing touchdowns, all over 25 yards. 

Park City’s defense held the Utes scoreless for the entire game, allowing Park City to finish the regular season with a 6-4 overall record.

Next up in the playoff brackets the Miners play away against the 7-4 Sky View Bobcats in Smithfield at 4:00 p.m. on Friday, October 31.

I've lived in Park City for 30 years but right off the starting line, my journalism professors expressed plaudits after class for writing more so about the small-town sports in the surrounding mountains than the urban updates they assigned. Therefore, I’m on par punning and penning Parkites' pastimes. Turning high and early through my career, I’ve worked communications for The Olympics, the Paralympics and the Special Olympics. Additionally, there's been National Geographic, Patagonia, NCAA, USA Nordic and the United States Library of Congress, so I guess you could say this ain't my first rodeo.
