This was really the first game we've won all year because we've had great keeper play." Mountain View may have caught Brighton's defense napping, since the Bruins struggled to generate much on the offensive end for much of the second half. But then Dust in Graham sent a pass down the middle of the field and suddenly DeLaFuente found an opening in the Bengal defense. He found the left corner of the net to put the Bruins up "The ball got through and they were pretty weak on that side, so I just saw it bouncing and took a hit at it," DeLaFuente said. "It feels good to win. We came out with energy. We knew it was going to be a hard game. This was a good team. We stayed composed every minute of the game. We came to win." But this one wasn't over yet. The Bengals kept Chester busy most of the second half. Chester had to make two spectacular saves in the game's final five minutes to help the Bruins hold on for the win. "Chester did an amazing job. He's the sickest keeper out there. He's the best keeper in the state," DeLaFuente said. "He made some amazing saves. He did a great job." Neither team could generate many scoring opportunities in the first half. The closest Mountain View came to scoring came with 9:45 left in the half when Mike Moreno got off a shot on the right wing. The ball was tracking the top of the Brighton net, but Patxi Shortsleeve tipped the shot up and over the net. Mountain View's defense kept Chester bored for the first 25 minutes of the half, but in the final 10 minutes, the Bruins survived a pair of close calls. Mike Nielsen cut outside and then back inside of two Mountain View defenders and ripped a shot from 30 yards out that hit the left post and skipped out of bounds. Nielsen then got in a dangerous position, just 10 yards out. He took a pass on one bounce and headed a shot that would have found nothing but net had Chester not caught it.

"We tried to defend a little, made a mistake, they made a good cross and had someone there to finish," Cardoso said.

Even with that advice, the Bobcats had one excellent chance to tie things off another Bulldog miscue. Sky View appeared to have a breakaway, but midfielder Nelson Long managed to poke the ball away just enough for it to roll to keeper Ryon EUingson and end the threat. Provo moves on to face the team that Bonneville defeated Timpview in overtime in the first round at Juan Diego High School in Draper on Wednesday at 3 p.m. for the right to go to the finals. The Bulldogs know it won't be easy, but they believe they have as good a chance as anyone. "When you're in the final four, it's anyone's championship," Christensen said.

Tigers Continued from CI After two rounds of the shootout, McKay Corbett and Brad Howard both converted their chances for Orem, but Woods Cross was as well. Jason Bodine nailed his chance to put the Tigers ahead It was on the Wildcats' third attempt that Orem got the only break it needed. Goalkeeper Brad Howard read the high kick and dove to his right to knock the ball away and give his team the upper hand. Sonny Cisneros then put his shot into the right cor-- 9 ner to set up Balser's 3-- game-winne- r. "We've been working on penalty kicks and our guys came through," said Orem coach Ed Louder. "Our goalie stopped one and that's what we needed." The shootout provided d an exciting finish to a game for both teams. "It was back and forth the well-playe- toward the goal whole game," Balser said. "They were a good team, one of the best we've played this year." During the first 80 minutes, both teams had several chances to score but failed to do so, in part due to solid goalkeep-in- g on both sides, as well as some errant shots. In the first overtime, Bodine almost connected on a beautifully struck free kick from just outside of the penalty box. In the second overtime, the Tigers nearly scored on a corner kick. Orem appeared to be the more aggressive team during overtime, partly because the Tigers didn't want to see a shootout.

The T'Birds' sprinting strength was evidenced by the fact that they set a new state record in the 4x100m relay preliminaries with a time of 42.86 seconds. The team also got a second-plac- e finish out of Nate Fletcher in the 1600m. Although they aren't as good of a bet to win it all, Springville and Lehi actually finished the day in front of the T'Birds in fourth and fifth place, respectively.
