The Bakersfield College volleyball team is on a roll after winning their previous three games. During the streak, the Renegades defeated Santa Monica College 25-15, 25-15, 22-25, 25-19, Santa Barbara City College 18-25, 25-15, 25-22, 16-25, 15-11, and Glendale College 25-17, 25-19, 25-19.
The Renegades are poised to move their way up into the top 10 in the state. The team is currently ranked 11th and has been playing really well as of late.
“I feel like as a team we’ve grown mentally,” said Kenadie Lee-McNeill, the team’s setter. “We’ve developed more of a competitive atmosphere that has helped us compete at a higher level.”
When asked what the team still needs to improve on, BC head coach Carl Ferreira said jokingly, “how long do you have?” Ferreira went on to explain that the team needs to get more disciplined in all facets of the game, but it is a long process.
“We are working on taking everything day by day, one match at a time,” said Lee-McNeill. “We need to stay competitive at practice so we can bring the best out of each other every time we step on the court.”
The Renegades look to remain hot on Oct. 9 as they travel to Santa Monica College. BC returns home for matches against Antelope Valley on Oct. 16 and West LA on Oct. 18.
