Branson Spikers Stretch Winning Streak to Four
Bulls haven't lost a set since a Sept. 27 loss to archrival Redwood.
Branson High's girls' volleyball team apparently isn't taking its first Marin County Athletic League loss in nearly three years lightly.
One of the county's most dominant programs in recent years extended its winning streak to four as the Bulls defeated San Marin 3-0 (25-9, 25-8, 25-13) in a Marin County Athletic League match on Oct. 11.
The Bulls (15-6, 7-1 MCAL) are unbeaten in 12 sets over that period since experiencing a 3-1 (25-22, 20-25, 25-23, 25-13) loss to Redwood on Sept. 27.
