The stark difference between Kaneland’s opening sets during Tuesday and Thursday’s regional volleyball matches could not have not been more apparent. During Tuesday’s regional semifinal against Glenbard South, the Knights struggled to play the standard of volleyball they’ve played all season and lost. By Thursday against Sycamore, that first set dud was a distant memory. “It was all mental [on Tuesday]. We came out a little bit scared and we came out today, we knew what we had to do and we just got it done,” Kaneland senior outside Maddie Buckley said following the Knights’ triumphant 25-14, 25-16 victory over Sycamore to capture the Class 3A Glenbard South regional title.
