Timpanogos Soccer The T'Wolves head into Region 4 play on a bit of a roll. After losing to rival Orem in the second game of the year, Natalyn Lewis has her team poised to challenge Lone Peak for the region championship. "We have had our ups and dowas in every game but we have been able to battle through it," Lewis said. "I am seeing improvement in every game and I expect to see the girls continue that through region." I Volleyball The Timpanogos volleyball team will play its first match against a Utah County team this week as the T'Wolves travel to Lehi to take on the play every game." But the squad from Highland is missing four starters from 2005, including Valley Player of the Year midfielder Mikala Wilkes. "That's an area of concern for us," LaHargoue said. "We need to get the midfield in sync. We have two great forwards for-wards and some good individual individ-ual talent, but the halfbacks aren't yet used to playing together so they're a little off." The Knights can quickly rack up goals with senior forward for-ward Lauren Hair and junior forward Shantel Flanary. The defense should also be solid with senior defender Danika Wright and senior keeper Hai-ley Hai-ley Brown. I Timpanogos (5-1-0) Chasing Lone Peak is the powerful offease of the Tim-berwolves. Tim-berwolves. Led by senior forward Stacy Bartholomew, Timpanogos has a team that could be in the hunt for the title. "They may have the toughest tough-est offease in the state," LaHargoue LaHa-rgoue said. "With all of their pieces together, they are definitely defi-nitely explosive. Bartholomew is a legitimate Division I forward for-ward and she has a solid supporting sup-porting cast." Forward Noelle Sanders and midfielder CheLsea Paepke provide pro-vide much of that support. The offense might need to cover for a defease that is growing into a successful unit, especially especial-ly early in region play. ..0 OUR LOVE BEST mnmmmmm JoAnn Adams (801)756-3503 52 EAST MAIN ST. 1 AMERICAN FORK ioofinodomsdlstatt.tom Glen Pack (801)785-1255 140 S.

"We need solid communication on defense and to capitalize on our strength and seniority on offense. Most of all we have to want it more than the people we are playing." DARK HORSE I American Fork (3-3-0) Both Lewis and LaHargoue believe the Cavemen could be the surprise team in 2006. "The first year we played them they weren't very good, but they were young," Lewis said. "Now they've had a couple cou-ple of years to get better. On any given day, they can put things together." Sophomore forward Kaycee Mansfield is the third leading scorer in the 5A ranks heading into region play (10 goals) and sophomore Nikki Ybarra has added punch with four goals of her own. Keeper April Hansen has been strong in the net. BUILDING FOR NEXT SEASON I Mountain View (0-6-0) The Bruins have faced a brutal bru-tal schedule in the preseason and struggled.

Craig and Galbraith, who actually play doubles together togeth-er in local tournaments, exchanged ex-changed smooth backhands and great groundstrokes in an impressive two-set match. Late rallies by Galbraith in both sets wasn't enough to overtake the talented Craig, as the Orem girl won 64,6-3. Kaitlyn wasn't the only talented member of the Craig family on display Thursday.
