The West High Panthers picked up their first win of 2023 in dramatic fashion, 19-18, on Friday in their region opener at Olympus High.
SALT LAKE CITY — West High picked up its first win of the 2023 season in dramatic fashion with a 19-18 win Friday in the school's region opener at Olympus High.
Solovi gave a special shoutout to his quarterback Isaiah SueSue, who threw a pair of touchdown passes in the second half to bring his team back from an 18-6 halftime deficit. The second touchdown exemplified the type of "hang in there and find a way" attitude Solovi talked about when SueSue was forced out of the pocket and evaded the incoming defenders for a solid 10 seconds before spotting Luseni Fifita wide open at the back of the end zone. The touchdown tied the game at 18-18, and all it took was a successful point-after kick to seal the comeback win.
SueSue fumbled on the opening drive, and Olympus took over on the 50-yard line. But the Titans fumbled it themselves on the very next play to give the ball right back. A 48-yard field goal attempt with 39 seconds left in the third would have been enough to win the game in the end, but the kick went wide.
