One night after beating Adams Central in convincing fashion, the Bellmont Braves went on the road and won 5-0 at Columbia City.
The Braves did not drop a set in the match.
It certainly did not look like it was going to be a sweep, however, when Leila Jin was trailing 5-0 in the second set.
The senior came all the way back to win and cap off the big night.
“To win seven games in a row and come back and win,” said head coach Kyle Arnold after the NE8 win. “I was super proud of her for that.”
The competition turns tougher for the Braves later this week. If the rain holds off on Thursday, they’ll take on the Norwell Knights.
