The Vikings traveled to Taylorsville and showed why they’re considered one of the favorites to win a State 4A title.

North led by only 17-15 after the opening quarter but they pushed the lead to 33-21 by halftime. Any hopes of a Cougar rally were quickly dashed when North stretched the lead to 53-30 by the end of the third period.

The visitors were led by Jordan Crawford with 19. They will advance to round III on Saturday with a record of 25-4.

For the Cougars a wonderful season ends. They tied for the Northwestern Conference regular season title and won the league tournament. They finish 23-5. The 23 wins is a new school record for wins in a season.

Evan Presnell closed a stellar career with 25 points.
