DAYTON - West Side coach Tyler Brown liked the way his team played against Bear Lake in the first quarter, but not so much the rest of its season opener in a 56-43 loss at home Wednesday.

The Pirates led 13-8 after one quarter, but the Bears then solved their press and outscored them 34-18 in the next two quarters.

"We had a good first quarter, then we lost the next three," Brown said. "They got a lot more easy baskets than we did. They got a lot more layups than we got."

Spencer Smedley led Bear Lake with 17 points, while Dallas Turnbow had 14 to pace West Side.

West Side (0-1) next hosts South Fremont on Saturday.

American Falls (1-0) next hosts Kimberly on Friday.
