GARLAND -- It is always sweet to upend your crosscounty rival, but the Bees have bigger fish to catch.

ROY -- Getting out on the soccer pitch was more important for the Roy Royals and Syracuse Titans than battling a stiff wind or playing through the snow flurries on Tuesday afternoon.

The Royals posted a 5-0 win, breaking open a 1-0 halftime lead with a goal-scoring burst at Roy West Park.

Several games along the Wasatch Front were postponed or shortened due to the incoming storm, but most soccer squads were able to get in their season openers.

WASHINGTON TERRACE -- It was not smooth sailing this week for the league-leading Lakers.

First up was a rocky six-point road win Tuesday over last-place Box Elder. Then Thursday, Bonneville had to regroup after a turnover-plagued, three-point third quarter to subdue the Grizzlies 49-37 and remain undefeated in Region 5.

"I think we had a good first half," Lakers junior guard/forward Emilie Volk said. "We weren't up on our feet like we should have been on defense and they got some 3-pointers. We couldn't miss when we were up there (shooting 49.1 percent in a 65-39 win on Jan. 17). I think we were ready; our shots weren't falling as much."
