Magna • Old, quirky high school gyms once inhabited the Salt Lake Valley. Fans filled places like Granite, Jordan, Bingham and West to the rafters, often screaming so loud that the din almost hurt.
Alas, new schools and modern facilities slowly replaced the old barns. And the crowds often became smaller with students and families having many activities from which to choose.
Cyprus High’s teams utilize the last of the old-guard gyms, a quirky place that serves as the center of social activity for many in this close-knit community that thrived when Kennecott Copper was Utah’s largest employer.
