MOSCOW - The shorthanded Moscow boys' soccer team got a goal from Ian Engerbretson midway through the second half that proved to be the difference in a season-opening win over Bonners Ferry on Saturday afternoon.

Moscow triumphed 2-1 in a nonleague contest at Bear Field.

The Bears were without five players who haven't practiced enough to gain eligibility. Coach Abilio Monteiro said his club "played about 60 percent of what we can play."

The winning goal was set up by Ryan Frenzel, who drew out Bonners Ferry's goalie and chested the ball to Engerbretson. He then maneuvered by defenders and shot at an empty net.

Moscow will play a nonleague match at Orofino on Thursday evening.

OROFINO - The Maniacs rode the wave of an early halftime lead before blanking Intermountain League foe Priest River.

Colt Savage and Dan Korbel each scored two goals to pace an Orofino team that took 28 shots on goal. Shorthanded Priest River was held to just four in the season opener.

"It was a good day for soccer," said Orofino coach Brian Palmer. "(Priest River) was a player short, so with no substitutions, it was a bit tough for them."

Orofino travels to Lewiston on Monday.
