Columbia 12-Black started their 2015 tournament season playing at the Block & Awe Tournament in Yakima. Columbia's youngest players went 2-2 for the day. Only a hard fought tie-breaker loss (17-19) kept them from sweeping their pool and probably advancing even higher in the Championship bracket. Their run ended in the Championship Quarterfinal and they finished 5th of 12 teams in the tournament.

The largest age group in CEVA Power League (U-14) uses a two weekend pool and challenge bracket system for January Qualifying. Columbia's U-14 teams finished their qualifying runs this past Sunday.

Columbia 14-Black was missing a middle hitter, but shifted their lineup and shook off their first weekend nerves to edge their seeding up to #28 overall. (At one point, 14-Black held #19 during the day.) The 14-Black girls went 4-1 for the day and swept their pool. 14-Black will play next in the CEVA I Diamond Division.

Columbia 14-Red had a second tough day losing the second and third tie-breaker games of their qualifying efforts. The three tie-breaker losses kept the 14-Red girls from holding their seeding, and the team slipped to #78 overall. 14-Red will play next in the CEVA III Columbia Division.

14-Black scores: defeated #45 Banks 4-1 25-17, 25-20; defeated #35 Webfoot 14-3 Green 25-18, 26-24; defeated #19 Salem 14-1 Black 25-15, 25-16; lost to #28 NW Reign 14-1 22-25, 19-25; defeated #35 OVA 14-1 Nationals 25-21, 19-25, 15-13.

Columbia 14-Black opened their season at the first day of CEVA Power League Qualifier under something of a handicap. Restricted to starting practice only after November 31st (and with four players new to club volleyball), they had a little catch up to play against their elite competition in CEVA. Still, the 14-Black girls proved they could compete, held their #29 seed (thanks to a schedule that saw them playing only opponents from the top 21 teams in the league), and shook off a lot of early mistakes to get themselves ready for Day two. 14-Black will be #29 again (of 144) and will play in Salem this Sunday.

Scores: lost to #13 NW Reign 14-1 16-25, 23-25; lost to #4 OJVBA 14-1 Gold 11-25, 12-25; lost to #20 Cowlitz 14-1 Black 17-25, 24-26; lost to #21 NCVBC 14-1 Black 7-25, 21-25 - to finish 29th (of 144)
