BRLD 4-1 in last five matches














The Bancroft-Rosalie-Lyons-Decatur Wolverines have continued their great play as of late, downing Scribner-Snyder 3-1 on the road last Tuesday night, Emerson-Hubbard and Winnebago 2-0 at their own triangular last Thursday night, before beating Wisner-Pilger 2-1 and losing 2-0 to Howells-Dodge at the Wisner-Pilger Double Triangular this past Tuesday night.

BRLD took set one from the Trojans, 25-22, before winning set two 25-23. Scribner-Snyder took set three 25-23 before the Wolverines earned a 25-20 win in set four.

Head Coach Rebecca James says she expected a good fight. "Their girls just don't give up. And their setter is pretty talented too cause she can dump the ball and she can also turn and hit. So yeah I felt like we were going to be evenly matched, and we always put up a pretty competitive game with Scribner, so yeah I was pleased with how we played."

BRLD knocked off the Pirates 25-15 in the first set, and 25-16 in the second set.

The Wolverines downed the Indians 25-3 in set one, and 25-8 in set two.

BRLD earned a 25-23 set one win over the Gators before Wisner-Pilger took set two 25-15. The Wolverines won set three 25-18.

BRLD lost set one to the Jaguars, 25-19, and dropped set two 25-20.

I think the Wolverines are playing impressive Volleyball right now. BRLD has been real good in their wins, and solid even in defeat.

The Wolverines (11-10) take part in the Clarkson/Leigh Tournament on Saturday.

Other teams in the tournament include the host Patriots and Oakland-Craig.

I think BRLD has a chance to do well in this tournament, and perhaps challenge for the championship.

The Wolverines are 7-3 in their last 10 matches, and have really come on as of late.

It has been an impressive thing to see from BRLD.

I look for the Wolverines to ride the wave of momentum they've created, and win even more on Saturday.

I think you will see BRLD compete well in every set they're in, and win their fair share of sets and matches.

I think it's going to be a good day for the Wolverines of BRLD.

The Wolverines have to be upbeat, loose, and thinking positive.

BRLD has to believe in themselves and be confident, but not be too overconfident.

The Wolverines have to stay disciplined and must be focused against every team they take the floor against.

BRLD has to do everything in their power to keep playing the way they have been lately, and win.

I don't think there's any doubt the Wolverines have a chance to do really well in this tournament, and perhaps even avenge an early season loss to Clarkson/Leigh should the two teams meet.

BRLD has to come out guns ablazin, and keep the momentum rolling all day.

The Wolverines have to pick up right where they left off last time, and play well all day long.

BRLD is due to breakout and win a tournament sometime given the way they've been playing lately, and I don't think there's a better time than now to earn your first tournament win of the year.

The Wolverines have to go out there and get it.
