 The opportunity to play football for a high school team at such a young age is great. On January 26, the seventh grade team were able to celebrate all the winning they had that season.  They had achieved so much. Being the only team they made it to the championships and won over all. Coach Ahyou said “These little athletes pushed themselves that all of their hard work paid off”. As these young athletes were joined, and many were awarded for their hard work. Many were recognized for their amazing season. Jayden Ahyou was one of the many awarded. Jayden was awarded for having more than 80 tackles during the season, and is the highest in the league. Being only 12 years old Jayden is on the All American football team. This is a huge accomplishment for a child who is just out of elementary school. He would not have got there without his amazing team. Jayden thanks his team for helping him accomplish his goal.
Another athlete recognized is named Junior Teaupa. He was recognized for having the most yards per carry in the league. Junior was also ranked highest in the league for overall player. Junior thanks his family for coming to his games. The young Bruins have had an amazing season, and hope to only get better as they continue.

Mountain View’s wrestling team secured a region championship when they defeated orem by 20+ points on thursday the 21st. The bruins beat every team in our region to bring the region trophy back to MV. Mountain View’s wrestling team was lead by senior keegan bray who defeated his opponent by decision, and johnny terry who defeated his with a pin in round three. The wrestling team has worked hard all season to get better. Mountain View is currently in “red flag week” which consists of two a day practices that each last up to around two hours. Coach Blevins has led the Bruins wrestling team for years, and has become somewhat of a local legend turning many young kids into astounding athletes. Senior Colton Rigby  said “the wrestling season has gone very well with mv taking region, and being ranked eighth in state. We should have a lot of people who should place in state” the whole team is excited, and nervous for the state tournament on Feb 10-11 at uvu university. Some students to watch for at state are Gabe Terry and Keegan Ngatuvai  who should both do well in their respective matches.

Brigham Miyazawa
Brigham Miyazawa is Mountain View’s next oncoming wrestler. Brigham has been wrestling since his freshman year of high school. He is in the 120 pound weight class. Brigham wrestles because he enjoys the hard work and achievements.  Brigham was born in Orem, Utah, and was raised here all his life. In his spare time he likes to hang out with his friends and eat. He says his favorite food is sushi and lasagna. Brigham ask that bruins should try and show up to the wrestling matches. “You don’t know what it’s all about… unless you come out and see.” The wrestling team also ask that you show up, “We need all the support that we can get.” says Brigham.
As a wrestler and a student, Brigham still remains positive he says “Win or lose you will always get better.”  Mr. Clegg, the English teacher, said “As a student, Brigham is a good one, he seems like a tough little scrapper. I like him.” Brigham is a great wrestler and is very courteous of others “He’s got a big heart.” says Josh Lindorf. We wish Brigham good luck as he continues with wrestling.
