The second annual NE8 duals will be held Friday and Saturday at New Haven. The #2, and soon-to-be #1, Bellmont Braves will open up with two duals (both set to be broadcast on 92.7 FM) on Friday before facing a tough day of action Saturday with five NE8 matchups.
Coach Tim Myers, who admitted that his team struggled with maintenance Tuesday at South Adams coming off the big win at Delta on Saturday night, will attempt to keep his team in the right range for a set of weigh-ins on Friday, Saturday and Tuesday, when the Braves host FW Snider.
The Braves got a little banged up Tuesday, with both Sam Wolpert and Cole Mendez coming off the mat in considerable pain, but neither seem to be facing any long-term absence. Junior Gavin Davis has looked good in his three matches since returning from a shoulder injury.
