BRLD 3-0 in last three matches

 

The BRLD Volleyball Team won 3-2 over Pender twice, beating the Pendragons in last Tuesday night's regular season finale at home before beating Pender in Tuesday night's C2-4 Sub-District Final, also at home. The Wolverines also beat Omaha Nation 3-0 at home in Monday night's Sub-District Semifinals.

Pender took set one from BRLD the first time around 25-17 and won set two 28-26. The Wolverines won set three 25-21, set four 25-17, and set five 15-10.

BRLD won set one over the Chiefs 25-5, set two 25-3, and set three 25-4.

In the second meeting with BRLD, the Wolverines won set one 25-21. Pender took set two 25-16 before BRLD won set three 25-8. The Pendragons claimed set four 27-25 and set five 19-17.

Great job by the Wolverines, who are headed to Sub-State!

BRLD (20-12) takes on Clarkson/Leigh (20-7) in Clarkson in the C2-4 District Final on Saturday afternoon in action that can be heard on 107.9 the Bull.

The Patriots lost 3-0 to Norfolk Catholic in the C2-6 Sub-District Semifinals at Lutheran High Northeast Monday night.

Clarkson/Leigh is just 3-5 in their last 8 matches.

Granted the Patriots have lost to some great teams, but still they have struggled some lately.

It's a Golden opportunity for the Wolverines to breakthrough and win and get to State.

It would be such a huge step for this program if they're able to beat Clarkson/Leigh.

The Patriots are at an advantage being at home and everything, but BRLD can definitely win this one.

Clarkson/Leigh beat the Wolverines twice in the regular season though so it won't be easy.

The Patriots could very well get back on track in and win this one.

I'd say BRLD is a better matchup for Clarkson/Leigh than Pender is.

The Pendragons beat the Patriots in Clarkson though so the Wolverines know they can do it too.

It's tough to beat a team 3 times in a season so we will see what happens come Saturday.

Opening serve is set for 1:30 p.m. on the Bull.
