Pleasant View • There were seven seconds left in the game, and Weber wanted to score.

Quarterback Brad Boswell found wideout Braxton Defriez in the corner of the end zone, and the 14-yard strike sent the Warriors faithful into a loud chorus of cheering.

They had reason to be proud — Weber wasn't shut out by Davis in a 30-7 rout.

But beyond the Warriors' last-minute score against the second-string defense, Davis put on a clinic in domination on both sides of the ball. The Darts defense stifled Weber until the last drive, and once the offense got rolling, it seemed unstoppable.

In their third overwhelming victory of the season, this time against a 2-0 Weber team, Davis is looking every bit the defending champion in Region 1.

"We just wore them down," said running back Tyrel Day, who accounted for three touchdowns and 144 yards. "We just kept pushing them. And our defense shut them down — they couldn't do anything against our first team."

Davis started off with a spark, going long to Daniel Moffet on 32- and 20-yard passes. A short run by Day put the Darts up 7-0 on their opening drive.

But other Davis drives stalled in Weber territory, as the Warriors slowed the run. The Darts also struggled with penalties that kept pushing them back.

The difference was the Darts defense, which collapsed the pocket and made quarterbacks Boswell and Jantz Arbon uncomfortable for the entire game. Junior defensive end Troy Hinds was among the primary pass-rushing threats, and he finished with two sacks and eight tackles despite being double-teamed for most of the day.

Davis really started rolling in the second half. After recovering a Weber fumble on a kickoff in the red zone, Day rolled in for another touchdown. In the next quarter, Day would break the longest run of the day for a 34-yard touchdown.

Another touchdown by Joseph McKay wrapped up the day on offense for Davis.

"We need to figure out some discipline — we're still getting too many penalties," coach Ryan Bishop said. "But we're very proud of our kids. They played with renewed urgency in the second half, and our defense really kept us ahead today."

Weber coach Rick Corbridge didn't appear to have his pride shaken or his confidence diminished in his team after losing to one of the best squads in 5A.

"This is a darn good football team," Corbridge said.
