Emery played well against veteran teams. Emery is loaded with younger talent and should continue to improve over the upcoming years.
Emery has played in a very tough region the past several seasons against teams like Delta, Richfield and North Sanpete that take the game very seriously.
With realignment happening next season, Emery’s new region may very well look much different but the team could do well regardless of where they land.
