It was a postseason volleyball match in which records and seeds were utterly irrelevant.

Wheaton North, the No. 13 seed of the Class 4A Geneva sectional, had Bartlett, the fourth seed, on the ropes all evening. But the Hawks found a way to survive.

With the Falcons desperately seeking to extend the third game, Bartlett setter Alyssa Cazzato capped off her 30th assist in style. The senior found Kelly Kraft, whose blistering kill in the back-left corner dispatched Wheaton North 25-23, 25-21, 25-23 in the second semifinal of the St. Charles North regional on Thursday night. Bartlett (24-11) will meet Upstate Eight Conference rival and host St. Charles North Saturday afternoon for the championship. The North Stars (24-11) have beaten the Hawks twice already this season. http://www.dailyherald.com
