Krystin Jachim came close her sophomore year -- Roy High took third in the 2007 4-A softball tournament -- but this season the Royals closed the deal with a scintillating five-game blitzkrieg in the state 4-A tournament where Roy outscored the opposition 34-zip. "It was our goal to win state all year," the 18-year-old Jachim said. "Winning it was everything put together. We had three pitchers, anyone could hit and our defense. Everything just came together this year.

Just when the Raptors might have begun wondering if they'd somehow been cursed by the Orem Owlz, they rallied for a big win Wednesday night at Lindquist Field. Facing their Pioneer League South rivals for the sixth time already this season, the Raptors played longball and came away with a nifty 6-5, extra-inning victory over a team that had beaten them four times in their first five meetings.

For example: Gary Cooper -- famous, of course, for playing Lou Gehrig in "Pride of the Yankees" -- once turned down the lead role in "Gone with the Wind."
