Columbia 17-Black swept their division (with one exception) at the Pacific Northwest Qualifier to reach the USA Division Championship Final. That one loss (to a Texas team) was repeated in the final despite a valiant effort by the U-17 ladies (who forced the match to a tie-breaker.) 17-Black finished 25th overall in a strong 75 team U-17 field. Reaching the championship final was good enough for our U-17 ladies to earn a bid to the USA Division at USAV Junior Nationals in Indianapolis. Congratulations players, coaches, and fans! Well done.
The Columbia ladies will be competing June 28th-July 2nd in 17 USA at Junior Nationals. (USA is the third level of the four "qualifying" divisions. The fifth division is open to teams without qualifying.) It's a big accomplishment to qualify, and we know they'll make us proud! Go Columbia!
