Seventeen players each from the NW US and W. Canada met in beautiful Coeur d'Alene, idaho for the 7th biannual Cascadia team tournament on April 18 & 19. Although the Canadian team was higher rated in both Divisions, the Americans did much better than expected clinching five of the top seven places in that Division. Only the strong performance of the Canadian Division 2 saved the day, ending up in a victory of 129 - 109.
