The Phoenix attack was led by Kristen Paulus with nine kills and five blocks, with Anna Eaton and Alexandra Zakutney both putting home six kills a piece. The Vikings defense kept GB in check, finishing with 71 digs and 13 blocks. GB had nine kills in every set after the first, while CSU totaled 37 over that stretch. 

CSU was led by London Portis with 13 kills and Hannah Greene with 12 kills.
