SPOKANE, Wash. — Flathead ran out of steam, finishing 13th in the Spokane Crossover Tournament after two days of games in Montana and Idaho.
The Bravettes won their pool in the morning, beating Lewiston, Idaho, and Cascade (Leavenworth, Wash.) in two sets and losing to Eisenhower (Yakima, Wash.) in three.
