GENEVA – You’ll have to excuse Geneva volleyball coach KC Johnsen for being at a loss for words after the Vikings’ 2-1 (25-20, 19-25, 25-22) win over rival Kaneland Wednesday night.

Trailing 21-14 in Game 3, a Geneva comeback had little credence as the Vikings’ appeared to be buried after falling way behind in the matches’ final set.

Alas, a few Kaneland unforced errors sandwiched around the play of Geneva’s Hannah Buck provided the unbelievable script to the Vikings’ comeback.
 “It would have been enjoyable even if we hadn’t caught them at the end – maybe,” Johnsen said with a big grin. “I really don’t know how that happened. They had it and we were trying to draw that line in the sand and we had to do it several times. We finally got it, we controlled it, and I finally started to breathe again.”
