Boys Cross Country was 2nd in Region 7 and 7th in State 4A while girls were 5th in Region and couldn’t quite qualify for state. Jiraa and Jiree Riding were the two fastest boys for Orem, separated by 3 seconds at state. Alexis MacArthur and Brenna Jeffs qualified individually for State.
Girls Volleyball finished 9-14 and lost both state games to Sky View and Clearfield. Despite some rough stretches early and during the season, Orem was able and string together some wins to make it to the playoffs but lost to powerhouse Sky View.
Boys Golf won Region 7 but didn’t play as well at state. They went undefeated in season match ups and Brock Stanger had an outstanding season as well.
Girls Tennis had Callie Forsyth qualify in the 1st Singles, Anne Marie Bitter in the 2nd Singles, Devri Deucher and Madaline Black together in the 2nd Doubles, and the team took 5th at State with 7 points. Deucher and Black won their bracket, defeating Anna Holley and Carley Williams of Skyline.

The Girls season opener is against Tooele at home and also have the Shanon Johnson Uintah Classic December 5 and 6. They open the region against Mountain View on December 30.
