Britton-Hecla’s volleyball squad picked up a win over Waubay-Summit last week Tuesday but then lost to Groton Area on Monday and Aberdeen Roncalli on Thursday in straight sets.
“The last couple games have been tough,” said BH coach Jena Peters, whose club stands at 8-10 on the season. “We have some work to do before Thursday, but I know these girls can do it. We need to get our confidence up again and take it one game at a time.”
The Lady Braves travel to Hamlin on Thursday and play at Great Plains Lutheran on Tuesday.
