The Orem Lady Stallions continued their victory streak this weekend at the 15th Annual Rocky Mountain Challenge, which served as the West's Regional Cup Tournament (RCT). The Denver event marked the girls team's first appearance at an all-star competition.
Pennsylvania kept the Regional Cup Tournament trophy at home, defeating Ohio and Virginia on day one, and overcoming Indiana 22-19 in the waning moments of the Pittsburgh final.
Here are scores from the Girls Brackets at the all-star tournaments around the country.

The Washington Loggers sport nine players from state champion and national high school runner-up Kent, while five other clubs bolster the 21-player roster. Parisa Asgharzadeh, who is fresh off of the Seattle Saracens’ DI club championship victory, is head coach and takes the all-star team to the Northwest Regional Cup Tournament (RCT) in Portland, Ore., this weekend.
Last year, Virginia won the Pittsburgh Challenge Cup (aka Mid-Atlantic Regional Cup Tournament) over Empire City 6-0, and that two-penalty-goal loss is not something the New Jersey/New York City-based team wants to repeat. All-star head coach Tom Feury has assembled a star-studded coaching staff and pooled some good talent for a run at the trophy this weekend.
