Benson volleyball loses heartbreaker to Minnewaska Area

The Benson volleyball team lost a heartbreaker to Minnewaska Area last Tuesday night despite winning the first two games and leading game three.  When coupled with a three-game sweep to state-ranked Sauk Centre, Thursday at home, the Braves are 4-16 overall and 1-10 in the WCC heading into the final two weeks of the regular-season.
This week, Benson is set to play at Atwater-CGC, Monday, before taking the rest of the week off, including MEA break.  The next week, Benson has home games against Morris Area and Montevideo.
The Section 3AA Tourney is set to begin Friday, Oct. 30, and right now, the Braves are still looking like the eighth seed in their half of the section and a first-round match at NLS or Morris Area.
