Colorado College took an early 7-2 lead in the second set and stretched the advantage to 20-10 on a kill by Swan. After the Mountaineers scored five in a row to cut their deficit in half, the Tigers scored five of the final six points.

The second set was back and forth as well, and the Tigers need to win the final four points, which included a pair of kills from Harris and a service ace by Krutz, to even the match at 2-all.
