Brahmas come narrowly close to a win with 3 tight sets.
Unable to capitalize on the close scores in each set, the Brahma’s struggles continued as they dropped their fifth consecutive loss to El Camino in a sweep.
The Brahmas hosted El Camino in the South Gym Building in a competitive back-and-forth spectacle on March 7 at 6 p.m.
It seemed like the nerves got the better of Pierce, as they were swept 25-19, 26-24, and 27-25.
“They did a great job trash talking and they rattled us,” Head Coach Joe Arechiga said.
The Brahmas wasted no time, as they got off to a 3-2 start in the first set. The first set went to El Camino with the final score being 25-19.
In the second set, Brandon’s spike angles started to come alive, and it was fought way better than the first set. With a deuce coming up, it didn’t take long for the Warriors to get two more points and win 26-24.
Opposite hitter Sam Henry said the team was playing to just stay alive in a postgame interview.
Impossible-looking saves made the Warrior’s spikes in the 3rd set less of a weapon, even when the Brahmas had given them a free ball. The last set was won by the Warriors 27-25.
“They just wanted it more than we did.” Outside hitter Brandon Ta said. “We’ve played better against better teams.”
