Sykora could not hide the emotions about the US victory in the finals.
„It just goes to show that volleyball is still growing. It was an amazing trip for me and I got to be there when USA won. When they were victors I got to be on the court with that team. More than half of the players in the team were my teammates so I always want the best for them. I was there, I was cheering and I felt as if I had just won the World Championships myself. Once a USA Volleyball member, always a USA Volleyball member. I gave my heart and soul to USA Volleyball and will always do that. When they win, I win.” – told ex-libero.
Sykora praised the atmosphere in Italy as one of the best in the world.
“I played in Italy for eight seasons so Italy is home to me. The volleyball atmosphere couldn’t be topped. I don’t think I’ve ever been in a gym like that, it was amazing in the finals, especially when Italy played. I would get chills. Even when the Italians were down 10-5, when they would get that sixth point the crowd would go bonkers, almost like they had won the World Championship.”
