SPRINGVILLE — Garrett Lindsey booted a 26-yard field goal with 17 seconds left to lift the Red Devils to a 20-17 win over Alta in a Class 5A state quarterfinal Friday night at Springville.
All square at 10-10 at halftime, Alta snuck ahead on Zach Engstrom’s 91-yard scoring spurt in the third quarter to give the Hawks a lead.
But Springville responded.

Defense dominated in the final period, until Lindsey hit the game-winning kick to send the Red Devils (9-3) to Rice-Eccles Stadium for the third-straight year with a regular-season rematch against Lehi on tap.
