What to watch: After losing 11 seniors, Glenbard East could be expected to take a bit of a step back, but coach Kent Overbey doesn’t see it that way.

Overbey is excited about a group of sophomores, which helped the JV team set a school record for wins (13) last year. Seven sophomores are making the jump to varsity to join four returning starters and seven varsity returners.
