Another first-year student-athlete, the freshman Bolmenas, helped the D&E women win four straight over the past week, including conference wins against Alderson Broaddus, Cedarville and Kentucky Wesleyan. D&E also beat Salem International in shutout fashion.
Monday saw the Senators walk away with an 8-1 victory against Alderson Broaddus. Bolmenas, from Tibro, Sweden, competed in the No. 3 singles match and No. 3 doubles with teammate Kelsie Roby to win by a score of 8-3.
Bolmenas picked up her fourth and fifth straight wins starting with a defeat of Cedarville’s Halie Hardwick in the No. 3 singles matchup in straight sets, 6-2 and 6-3. Bolmenas and Roby defeated Cedarville’s Rosie Thompson and Deanna Whalen, 8-1.
Bolmenas completed a near-perfect week with singles and doubles wins in the shutout against Kentucky Wesleyan at home in Elkins.
