The girls traveled to Price to take on Union HS, and quickly got into a groove. They dominated the game from the opening kick, and managed to pull out a 0 victory. Play was a bit sloppy, due to many new faces in the lineup, but the girls managed to move the ball with crisp passing, good runs on goal and solid defense. Sylvia Bentley, the defensive anchor this year, scored the first goal of the season off a long clear deep in the offensive zone. She timed her kick and met the ball solidly, and put it over the head of the Union keeper from about 35 yards out. The first half ended with Grand up In the second half, the girls picked up right where they left off, and really took command of the game. After three straight corner kicks by Whitney Keogh, Alison Hillis took the next corner and scored on a beautiful bending ball into the far side of 2-- 1-- 0. the net. Union never really threatened, and the game ended with Molly Jones, in her first game as goalkeeper, earning the shutout. The team then traveled to Salt Lake City to take on Waterford School. The girls knew they were in for a fight, ru, and took the opportunity to learn from one of the most talented teams in the state. Grand immediately went on the defensive as the speedy Waterford girls put on a dazzling display of passing and running. The game went without a score for almost twenty minutes, but then the floodgates opened and the Red Devils seemed finished. As halftime neared, the Devils may have been down but not out. One of the best scoring chances came from a powerful run by Robyn Klein and pass to Whitney Keogh, but the Waterford keeper made an outstanding save. The second half was simply more of the first, with Waterford seeming to move the ball at will, and the game ended the Devils down 9-- 0. The Waterford coaches complimented the girls, noting that they never quit, and picked up the pace of play even at the end of the game. Over the weekend, Grand hosted its fifth annual invitational tournament, with South Summit and Canyon View coming to town. On Friday, Grand took on the South Summit Wildcats in the opening game. The Devils found their form as in the Union game, and controlled every moment.

The second goal came off a cross from Keogh to Maggie Nielsen, who volleyed it into the corner.

After a wet spring in 2003, the number of fawns per 100 does increased to a statewide average of 58 fawns per 100 does.
