It's a big deal to have to play up an age level at a National Qualifier. Columbia 15-Black did it with style. The 15-Black ladies went 4-3 over three days entirely against U16 teams at the Far Western National Qualifier. They joined two of their sister teams in going undefeated on Saturday. The magic ran out earlier than they would have liked when they were knocked out of Flight 2A Sunday morning, but these ladies really showed the meaning of "Go Columbia!"

Along their journey, 15-Black came within a tie-breaker of knocking off the #6 team in their division. Columbia's players, coaches, and fans can all be proud of their performance this weekend. Our club is proud of all of you.

Columbia 17-Black finished 2nd in the EV National Bid Tournament, earning a 17 American bid to USAV Junior Nationals. Since they'd already earned a higher 17 USA bid, the team declined the American bid. The Columbia U-17 ladies then moved on to play in the EV U-18 Regional Championships. 17-Black played their way into the Gold Bracket of the 29 team field, but fell in the first bracket round (after an epic battle in their previous match) to finish 9th overall (2nd among U-17 teams.) Keep it up ladies!

17-Black scores (both days): defeated PAC-V 17-1 25-7, 25-23; lost to CPA Adidas 17 Black 11-25, 25-17, 17-19; defeated Shockwave 17 National 25-18; lost to CPA Adidas 17 Black 25-17, 21-25, 11-15; lost to CW 18 Elite 26-28, 22-25; defeated North Idaho Thunder 17 Gold 25-23, 22-25, 15-8; lost to MVA 18 National 31-33, 25-22, 11-15; lost to CPA Adidas 17 Black 12-25, 17-25.

Columbia 13-Black struggled to start out at the Evergreen Regional Championships over the weekend, but picked it up after their first match to have the highest U-13 finish of any team from our area. 5th place overall in their age level, (and undefeated among U-13 teams they played) after four teams from Spokane and North Idaho. (A three hour wait during bracket play may have cost this team the momentum that would have brought them medals as well.) Congratulations girls (and coach.) Keep it up!
