Volleyball: Glacier tips Flathead in semis

BUTTE — Crosstown III was a battle, with Glacier needing five sets — and 18 kills from Sarah Downs — to subdue Flathead in the semifinals of the Western AA volleyball tournament Friday.

Kenedee Moore had 20 digs and Ella Farrell had 12 kills and four blocks for Glacier in a match that had plenty of action at the net: Three Bravettes had at least 13 kills.

In the end the Wolfpack (19-7) prevailed 19-25, 25-16, 22-25, 25-22, 15-10 at the Civic Center, earning a spot in Saturday’s championship and one of four berths into next week’s State AA tournament in Bozeman.
