Dugway came away from the contest with a 87-41 victory, the worst defeat the winless East Carbon boys have absorbed this year.

In the first quarter the Mustangs jumped out to a 19-11 lead, but it was the second period which did the Vikings in as they were outscored 33-6.
Dugway began to substitute in the third quarter, but still won the scoring contest for the period 12-7.
In the final period, East Carbon was finally able to put up some normal numbers with 17 points, but it was too little too late.

Others who scored included J.D. Leonard with 7, with Stephen Brown, David Stewart and Chris Candelaria all scoring 2 points.
