University of Utah Camp Clinic

Here's just a few snapshots Tyler snapped while attending the University of Utah Football Clinic!! The boys seemed to have a great time and it was an awesome experience!!!

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!!!

1st Division Game...1st Division Victory!!!

We beat the Beetdiggers 34 - 0!!!

We started out our Division play with a win over Jordan!!

Again, our offense was awesome, moving the ball and scoring at will!!

Again, our Defense was stellar...allowing NO POINTS!!

Our Touchdown bucket, was the proud receipient of lots of cash from all our Touchdowns!!

Our "Wrecking Crew" seem to be making their mark on our Division!!

Nice Job Bingham!!! Keep it UP!!!

Taylorsville Drubbing!!!

Taylorsville seemed to be no contest for our Bingham Boys!!! We were able to score at will!!! Our offense seemed to be able to move the ball wherever and whenever they wanted. Scores from D. Mpungi, Morgan, Chepkwurui, D... We beat the Taylorsville Warriors 39 - 0!!!

Our Defense again held another team SCORELESS and looked awesome not allowing much yardage!! Taylorsville offense ran squatted and hiding behind their line until they popped out on either side, can't say that their trickery worked, usually our awesome "D" sniffed them out and most times they didn't get beyond the line of scrimmage. Our "D" had awesome coverage in the secondary on those occasions when they would put the ball in the air...not much luck there either!!!

It was a great win, and it was fun to see some different players run and touch the ball!! Wilkins, Mena, and Campbell all got chances to run the ball!! Butterfield caught a pass and then ran with the ball for 10 or so yards and was tackled about 10 yards shy of the endzone!!! Nice work guys!!!

Way to go BIngHam BlaCK!!!

Bingham OVER Alta Gray...25-13

Our first real contest of the year...

Our Offense started off with a bang...first offensive play of the game...handoff to Peterson who turned it into a 40 yard run to score on our fist offensive play!! D. Mpungi ran back a 78 Yard Kick Return for Touchdown!!! J. Mpungi also scored too!!

Our Defense was scored on for the first time all year!! They also scored on special teams, returning a Kickoff for a score!! That was just enough to get the boys attention and they came back out fired up and went down the field and scored...putting Alta's hopes of victory in the GUTTER!! But it was a good well fought game!!

It was awesome to see our players face some adversity, but then turn that adversity into a plus and build off of it!! They came out fired up and wanting to win!!

Way to go Boys!!!

DeFeNSiVe DoMiNAtiOn...

Our DEFENSE was, well...PERFECT!!
3 games = NO TOUCHDOWNS scored on our "D"!!
In fact it was OUR DEFENSE that put TOUCHDOWNS on the board against the Jordan Beetdiggers on Saturday.
Our Bingham Black Mity Mites beat Jordan 27 - 0, with 3 Defensive touchdowns.

First, an intercepted pass by Ammon Driggs ran in from about the 20 for a TOUCHDOWN!!! Second, Tate Peterson being the recepient of popped up fumble caused by D. Mpungi and then taking it in about 30 yards for a TOUCHDOWN!!! Last, D. Mpungi snagging a pitchout and running that in for a TOUCHDOWN!!!

D. Mpungi also had an awesome run in the 1st half...bumping, gliding and weaving his way about 40 yards to score a touchdown.
Peterson, Bocchini and Jacob Mpungi had chances to play running back and were successful in gaining lots of yards for our offense. As usual Gibson and Chepkwurui played perfect at QB's and our line had some awesome blocking for our running backs!!!

Our Defense stiffled the Beetdiggers offense not allowing them to even get out of the backfield on many occasions. D. Mpungi played havoc in the backfield and with their offensive line. Our defenses motto ONE HIT...ONE TACKLE!!! Peterson, Gibson, Moser, Chepkwurui and our whole defense made sure that they gained no yards once out of the backfield and made sure they had ONE HIT, ONE TACKLE!!!

What an awesome game and so much fun to watch!!! Nice job Bingham Black!!!

Next up: The ALTA SPARROWhawks as we like to call them!!!

1st Regular Season Game...1st Regular Season WIN!!!

In our 1st Regular season game we faced a ginormous Woods Cross Blue team!! Their boys were big, but their boys were NOT better!!! I am pretty certain that they thought they would walk all over us...they obviously haven't seen OUR Wrecking Crew!!!

We came right out on attack and kicked an onsides kick that Morgan sprinted down the field to recover!!!

With Gibson and Chepkwurui leading our offense at Quarterback, we scored with D. Mpungi running it in from about 10 yards, with a TouchDOWN Sized block from Jackson Marchant in the first quarter. In the second quarter, Chepkwurui found a wide OPEN Marchant standing all alone at the ten and he ran it in for our second score of the day!! Our offense stuttered a little bit, but our DEFENSE held on strong and held the Woods Cross Blue team SCORELESS!!!

Tate Peterson led our "D" with some pad popping tackles to stop two of their drives!!! OUr DEFENSE is AWESOME!!! Second week in a row that they have held their opponent SCORELESS!!! Nice job BINGHAM BLACK...next up...the Beetdiggers of Jordan!!
