Facing a tough opponent Thursday night, Bellmont head tennis coach Kyle Arnold made a change to his lineup, but his team dropped the match against Blackhawk Christian, 5-0.
The Braves tossed Larry Knous into the doubles’ mix and brought Kaden Ramsey into the singles lineup at No. 3. That moved bumped up James Miller to the No. 2 spot.
The Braves only set win on the night came at No. 1 singles when Hayden Huss used his savvy return game to take the opening set off his opponent, Sam Donnelly.
Huss eventually ended up in an ultimate tiebreaker situation, but fell, 10-6.
The Braves will face another stiff test Tuesday when they play in Monroe against Adams Central.
