Hey guys!
The work continues. We are bringing back, for its seventh year, #TheSeason. We didn’t do these first year, but have ever since. It’s something nobody else does. We compile all season records and write a wrapup for each team. To get them completed more quickly, we are summarizing these a bit more than in seasons past.
Today, we are halfway done through Round 3, with Belleview.
BELLEVIEW
You can see everything I have on the Diamondbacks in 2020-21 here –> BELLEVIEW
Win/loss record: 9-5 in dual meets reported to Matmen. We did not receive Belleview’s duals from its season-ending tournament at Villages, and it appears we were missing a tri-meet of some sort in January as well.
