By David Bashore Times-News writer

Players will take to Bruin Stadium tonight, chasing a ball from end to end with precious little time for a breather. But it won’t be the Twin Falls Bruins, and the players won’t be chasing a football. At least, not that kind of football. Instead, Boise Blitz FC will play host to Sparta United Salt Lake in the opening games of their Women’s Premier Soccer League divi- sion campaigns. The divi- sion season starts with a weekend series tonight and Saturday for the club that bills itself as “Idaho’s Team,” and it begins at Bruin Stadium in Twin Falls. “We’re really excited to be coming to Twin Falls because the soccer commu- nity there has some momen- tum in terms of growth and we really feel like we can help See SOCCER, Sports 2
