of state tourney |

Orme was scorching Gila Bend 42-0 fewer than four minutes into the second quarter when the mercy rule kicked in and the game went to running clock.
Few teams on the winning end would opt to go to the hurry-up in that situation, but the Warriors did. Nothing against the visitors, but they needed their reps.

The game was all tied up at 14-14 at the break. But in the second half, Mayer showed what it was capable of by pulling away for a 42-14 win over the Diamondbacks (3-3 overall, 1-3 region).
