• The first set was back-and-forth throughout, with 12 ties, five lead changes and no lead of more than three points. CBU (14-18, 6-9 GSC) used an early 5-1 run to open a 7-4 lead on a Kapria Manning (Olive Branch, Miss./Center Hill HS) kill, but Union (14-16, 4-11) would eventually regain the lead with a four-point run that put them ahead 18-17. CBU scored three straight, capped by an Erica Maurer (St. Louis, Mo./Ursuline Academy) kill to take a 22-20 edge, but Union rallied to tie it at 23. CBU served for set point twice, ahead 25-24 and then 26-25, before the Lady Bulldogs closed the set with four of the last five points to win 29-27.
• An eight-point run in the middle of the second set let CBU pull away to a 17-9 lead in what had been a close set. Alexa Henderson (Prairie du Sac, Wis./Sauk Prairie HS) had two aces in the run, which was capped by a double-block from Maurer and Mary Kathryn Miller (Fulton, Ky./Fulton City HS). Union drew as close as 21-16 before the Lady Bucs closed out a 25-17 win by scoring four of the last five.
• The third set also saw the teams trade early leads before a run broke a 9-9 tie. This time, it was Union scoring three straight to take a 12-9 lead they would not relinquish. The Lady Bucs came within one point six times, as late as 21-20, but Union held on for the 25-22 win.
• Union broke a 10-10 tie in the fourth set with a 5-1 run, and a later 6-0 run let them stretch out a 23-13 lead en route to a 25-17 win to clinch the match.
