Day One at the GNC

So much to say about the first day of the Great Northwest Classic.

Northern California pulled off a big one to open the tournament. Both NorCal and Oregon came from behind to win games. One pool had three teams go 1-1. Montana almost lost to the Cascade Conference only to storm back to win 20-10.  Oregon surprised.
