Columbia 13-Black suffered two tough moments during a long day at the Spokane Sideout Classic. The first came in their second match when a tough 14-16 tie-breaker forced them into the consolation bracket. But after winning their first two bracket matches, Columbia's second-youngest team found themselves in the final. Unfortunately, their second tough moment came in a final tie-breaker for the championship, when the Columbia girls fell just short. Playing in the last match of the day, and their sixth of the competition, these girls fought right to the last. Keep pushing forward girls!
