HERRIMAN, Utah — Death, taxes and Lone Peak girls soccer playing for a 6A state championship.
The Knights got goals from three different scorers, and Scottlyn Schlosser notched her sixth shutout of the year to pull past rival American Fork, 3-0 Monday afternoon at Zions Bank Stadium.
With the win, Lone Peak (17-3) advanced to the championship match for the fourth straight year that includes titles in 2023 and 2024.
“It’s great. You obviously can never complain when you get to the finals,” said Lone Peak coach Shantel Jolley, whose team lost 2-0 to Syracuse in last the 2025 6A championship. “But I think we’ve got something different to prove this year. It’s definitely not a revenge game; we just want to prove that we can get one this year as opposed to ‘redeeming’ ourselves.
“We’re excited to be back.”
The top-seeded Knights started fast, about 20 seconds after kickoff when Sami Schiffman found Macie Leavitt for a goal that gave the Knights a lead they would never relinquish.
Nya Piercy doubled the lead just before halftime, and Kami McMurtey stretched the advantage to 3-0 midway through the second half to account for the gamewinner.
The Knights cruised to a 15th consecutive win over their Region 3 rivals, a streak that dates back to a 3-1 loss in September 2020. Lone Peak won both regular-season meetings via shutout by an aggregate score of 7-0.
With the win, Lone Peak advance to Friday’s 6A championship against Davis.
Maudsley, Davis dart past Phoenix for championship berth
At Zions Bank Stadium, Samantha Maudsley had a goal and an assist, including the second-half matchwinner, as the second-seeded Darts advance to the 6A championship match for the second time in three years with a 3-2 win over Region 1 rival Farmington.
Kate Willard led Davis (15-4) with two goals. But the Darts trailed early before Maudsley led the comeback.
Farmington struck first through Oaklee Stanford to put the third-seeded Phoenix in front.
But Willard topped the 20-goal mark on the season with a first-half brace less than two minutes apart. The Weber State commit finished a crossed from Maudsley to equalize in the 26th minute, and then pushed the Darts in front moments after the restart with a cool finish from Marley Francis.
The Phoenix still weren’t done.
Addy Webb drew Farmington level with a 48th-minute screamer as the two sides played to a 2-2 halftime stalemate.
But Maudsley broke through midway through the second half, finishing off a cross into the box from Avery Johnson in the 63rd minute of play to lift Davis back into the title game against the perennial contender Knights.
Kickoff is scheduled for 10 a.m. MT Friday at Zions Bank Stadium in Herriman.
