Don’t look now, but the Joliet Central volleyball team may be getting hot at the right time.

The Steelmen, who won two of their four matches in the Bradley-Bourbonnais tournament over the weekend, made it wins in three of their last five Monday night with a 25-20, 25-19 win over Illinois Math and Science Academy on Senior Night.

Joliet Central (8-21) was 5-2 to start the season. But, with the postseason starting next week, the Steelmen seem to be rounding back into shape.

“I think we’re back to playing like we were at the start of the season,” said senior captain Delaney Moran, who led all players with nine kills. “The biggest difference lately has been our energy. We are really getting to the point where we trust each other on the court and we aren’t second-guessing.”
