Ally Stevenson , the only underclassman last season for Geneva, felt this fall would be different.
The junior setter had to grow up in a hurry for the Vikings, helping to bring along a whole new varsity team while at the same time playing one of the most important positions on the court.
“Having all seniors last year and being the only underclassman was very overwhelming,” Stevenson said. “But I knew this year, I really needed to take charge on the court and help everyone learn the varsity game.”
It was very appropriate then that Stevenson was the one at the service line at the end of Geneva’s most stirring comeback this year in their final regular-season match.
Stevenson set Emma Peterson for a back-row kill to finish off a 25-22, 28-26 DuKane Conference win over St. Charles East.
