Victory is Sweet...Revenge is SWEETTER!!!


Man, it feels good to beat a team that beat you already this year!! It was even more sweet when that team seemed to have overlooked our Wrecking Crew...They were celebrating in the parking lot before the game...snacking on donuts and hot chocolate...I bet those donuts didn't settle in the stomachs too well!!

Our Players came out ready to play and ready to take it to the Jaquars!!

Morgan returned the opening kickoff to about the twenty to start off the game with a bang...a few plays later, D. Mpungi took the ball on a sweep around the corner and right into the endzone!! Extra points have been worked on during practices after losing the Alta game because of it...Jackson Marchant caught a pass right over the middle to score our extra point!!

West Jordan was able to move the ball on a long pass on a long third down to tie the score. It looked like it was going to be back forth scoring match...

D. Mpungi returned the kickoff about 70 yards, after bobbling the kick, for a touchdown!! And from that point on, we didn't look back from that point on!! Our Defense was AWESOME and didn't allow West Jordan to move the ball much at all!!

Our offense continued to click, even without D. Mpungi who left the game in the 2nd Quarter with a hurt foot. Jacob Mpungi picked up where D. left off. Jackson Marchant was left wide open for ...almost...two touchdowns!!

It was a fun win and although you could see the excitement on the boys faces...you could also see that they are not done, there is still one more game!! You can see it in their eyes...they want more...they want another shot at those Alta Hawks!!

So nice job Bingham Black...enjoy that victory...but don't settle...we still have work to do!! Work hard to make your second shot everything you hoped it would be!!

This is where Champions are MADE!! Way to go Bingham Black...fight hard!!!

Win Over Herriman


The Bingham Black Mity Mites were able to avenge their overtime loss on the Herriman Mustangs...and did they ever!! We were able to work on perfecting our passing and running games with Gibson at Quarterback and Marchant and D. Mpungi the recipients of some of those passes. Jacob Mpungi got his running game going against the Mustangs!! And as always our Defense was stellar, not allowing a touchdown!!

It felt good to get our game back in line...right in time for playoffs!!

Way to go Bingham Black...it is TIME!! West Jordan and Alta...here we come!!!

Overtime Heartbreaker...


We lost in a heartbreaker on Saturday against Alta, 7-6 in Overtime!!

This game defintely lived up to all its hype...It was a battle from the beginning. Two very good defenses, fighting two very good offenses. Defenses won on Saturday for both teams. Both teams were able to move the ball, but could never punch it in!!

Tate Peterson had a 40 yard touchdown run called back right after the half, on a penalty...not enough men on the line...didn't affect the play...in fact it was probably hurt us...but Petey broke through the line and scored only to have it called back! That was the only thing that came close all day.

The game ended in a 0-0 TIE!! For those of us that played for Jimmy last year it had an awful feel of that Championship game last year!!

Alta won the toss and we got the ball first. We scored on a pass to Jackson Marchant right over the middle...unfortunately our extra point was unsuccessful, as Peterson was stuffed right before the endzone.

Alta scored on their 4th down, and BARELY made it into the endzone to get the extra point and win the game.

There is NO doubt, every single one of our boys left it all out on the field!! What an effort, what a game!! The beauty of this game...we get to see those Alta Hawks again come Playoff time...and our players CAN'T WAIT!!

Nice Game Bingham Black...next time...it is our turn!!!

Olympus Drubbing...

It didn't matter what we did on Saturday...we still scored!!! Our Bingham Black Mity Mites were working on all cylinders against Olympus beating them 51-6!!!

It didn't matter that we played most of the second half with 8 to 9 Defensive Players on the field...everything we did resulted in touchdowns...even when we didn't mean too!!

It was fun to see everyone play and it was a beautiful fall afternoon at the football field!!

Way to go Bingham Black!! Way to take it to those Titans!!!

Hard Pill to Swallow...


Saturday our Bingham Black "Wrecking Crew" had a tough fight on their hands, West Jordan was ready and waiting for us. They came right out and scored on our Defense in their opening possession...

It caught our attention and we came back with fight and determination. We went right down the field and scored with lots of awesome runs by Morgan and D. Mpungi. D. Scored and got our extra point, leaving it tied!! Our Defense seemed to take back the advantage and held them on downs, giving us back the ball. We moved the ball down the field again and scored on a perfect pass in the endzone from Gibby to a wide open Chepkwurui. Our "D" held them off just before half leaving the score 14-7 Bingham.

The third quarter was a battle of Defenses!! Chepkwurui, D. Mpungi and Morgan came up with huge drive killing interceptions. Although our offense was struggling, Gibson was able to complete passes to Peterson for a large gain, Mpungi and lots of Quarterback keepers to gain more yards. Unfortunately, we were never able to score any more touchdowns.

Our "D" worked hard to hold them, but West Jordan scored with just under 7 minutes left to go in the game, and getting the 2 point conversion, pushing it in behind their bohemian giant of a center...taking the lead at 15-14!! Our offense was struggling, missing two of our Big X Men, we had given all we could. Gibson tried to make magic but we came up short!!

Losses are hard...first losses are even harder...but speaking from experience...going undefeated in regular season is good...but...winning a championship would be AWESOME!! So I think will take our loss now...learn from it, improve on it, become better and work harder!!!

And to West Jordan...unfortunately...I think you just woke a sleeping giant...
We will look forward to meeting you again in the Playoffs and next time we will be ready!!!

But for today, get ready for Olympus!! Let's practice hard, take our intensity level up a notch and see what happens...this is where CHAMPIONS are made!!!!

LETS GO BINGHAM BLACK!!!
