Seven points. That's the whole story and the whole margin, and at Skyridge on Friday night it was enough. The Falcons took it 28-21 over American Fork on Nov. 6, kickoff at 6 p.m. MT, two 6A programs splitting the difference by a single score.
Here's what a seven-point game means without the box score in front of you. Neither side got to relax. Twenty-eight and 21 is the kind of final that leaves both benches standing the whole way, and American Fork was close enough all night that the Cavemen never became a footnote in it. Skyridge just happened to be the one holding the extra score when the thing ended.
No ranks attached to either team here, no board date to cite, nothing but a number on each side and a host that kept its number bigger. Sometimes that's the cleanest way to read a football game.
Skyridge 28, American Fork 21. Lehi keeps it.
