Parowan High Secures Season-Opening Football Win
Parowan High School defeated Cedar City 19 to 1 in a six man football game last Friday. Grayson Gurr rushed 80 yards for a touchdown and scored twice, with David Hateh and Simon Benson delivering the extra point on the successful TD. Cedar kept pressure limited as Parowan’s defense forced a fumble and a late Cedar surge failed to reach the end zone. The team’s complete effort, fresh legs, and early big score led to the win. Parowan prepares to host Beaver next, a strong opponent from Milford, on Friday at 3 p.m. A Dixie vs Trucane contest at St George reportedly occurred, score not confirmed.
