GREAT FALLS — Beside the state tournament, the biggest Class AA softball event of the season took place Saturday as all 16 schools — Bozeman High competed as a varsity team for the only time this season — met at Great Falls' Multi Sports Complex for the annual East/West crossover.
Games featuring the top two teams in each division such as Belgrade versus Helena High and Billings Senior facing Missoula Big Sky were played, including many other noteworthy matchups.
