The Knights are now Runnin' The Field

As The Utah High School regular season football starts, it is clear that Bingham and Cottonwood are powerhouses, but anyone can be beat. Lone Peak High School has the talent and teamwork to become the 2010 Cinderella team. With junior, Chase Hansen, as Quarterback and a defense consisting of Keyan Norman, Kyle Hannemann, Tanner Larsen, and Josh Stephan, the Knights have a very powerful team. Under the direction of Tony McGeary, there is a huge opportunity for Lone Peak to go all the way. Currently, Lone Peak is 2-1 in preseason and 2-0 in regular season. The Knights have injuries on the team right now that are affecting the them, but the coaching staff works with every player on the roster to become an excellent replacement. On September 24th, this school of great tradition will compete with Alta High School in their third region game to fight for the number one spot in Region IV. No matter what, it will result in an amazing high school football season for the state of Utah.

Another Hannemann Rises

Jacob Hannemann is now gone, he has been sent out on a mission, but he was not the end of the Hannemann clan. Now a senior, Kyle, has bee one of the best athletes that have come through Lone Peak. He works as hard or even harder than anyone in the state, to chase his goal of starting at a Division-1 football program. His father, Howard, has helped both him and his brothers conquer many challenges, which they have gone through in, both sports and in life. Being LDS, young adults serve missions for two years, and when Jacob was drafted by The Kansas City Royals, it was with much help from his father to help him decide to serve the Lord instead of serving the MLB. This is one of the many times that Father Hannemann has been there for all of his children. Kyle has overcome many injuries, and nothing can stop him from playing the game that he loves. Watching the great Deion Sanders has helped Kyle become the very talented player that he is. From little league to playing at a school of great tradition, Lone Peak, Coach Tony McGeary is extremely lucky to have a player of this caliber on his team. As the Hannemann family continues to get older they will help Lone Peak athletics in the years to come. GO KNIGHTS!!!
