SPRINGDALE -- Fabrizio Campagnola felt sick Tuesday.
Not with some physical ailment or viral affliction that kept him feeling ill. Instead, it was caused by his team's loss to Rogers High two days earlier, a match the Springdale Har-Ber girls soccer coach said his team could have won. And while that loss left him feeling ill, Thursday's match provided a cure.

The Lady Wildcats defeated cross-two rival Springdale High 3-0 in 7A-West Conference action at Jarrell Williams Bulldog Stadium.
"That's what we needed," Campagnola said. "It's a good step forward to recover from the loss to Rogers. We were really disappointed. We thought we could have beat Rogers, but we came back and we played well."
Har-Ber (4-6, 1-1 7A-West) was led by a trio of players who each scored. Erica Orellana-Aguillar opened the scoring with a shot past the Springdale keeper in the 12th minute.
Faith Snow gave the Lady Wildcats a 2-0 advantage in the 28th minute when she rebounded a missed shot from about 10 yards out.
"She works extremely hard," Campagnola said. "I don't know how she scored that goal, honestly. She took that shot and it went right under the corner."
Gisselle Estrada added to the Lady Wildcats' lead in the 47th minute. She received a pass just outside the penalty area, put a move on a Springdale defender then booted a left-footed shot past the diving keeper.
Springdale struggled to possess the ball, especially in the first half. Lady Bulldogs coach D.J. Beeler said his team struggled with heavy winds that were blowing throughout the stadium, especially in the first half.
"We settled in in the first half and played better, but the wind had something to do with it too," Beeler said. "We were facing the wind in the first half. The second half was a little bit better. At the end of the day, we created four or five chances to score, and we didn't convert any of them."
Both teams will take off next week for spring break.
