After winning its first playoff game in a decade, the Greenwave soccer team couldn’t get the offense going against the best team in the region.

Fallon, which finished second in the 3A East, fell to No. 1 Truckee (3A West), 7-0, on Friday in the Class 3A Northern Region semifinals in Elko.

Elko, the East’s No. 1 seed, blanked No. 2 South Tahoe (3A West), 2-0, to advance to the regional championship and state tournament. Truckee, though, took down Elko, 3-1, for the regional title and region’s No. 1 seed for this week’s state tournament in Las Vegas.
