A kill by Elliott got the Golden Eagles to set point at 24-15 and a kill by Dittmann ended the frame.

The Golden Eagles trailed 13-11 in the second set, but used a 9-0 run to take the lead. A kill by Henke and back-to-back service aces by Henke made it 14-13 and a kill by Dittmann, an attack error, a kill by Elliott, two kills by Dittmann and a bad set made it 20-13.
