Bianca Endersby's kill knotted the set at 24, but a service error by Endersby put UCI again up at set-point, 25-24. Vialpando's kill on the next play made it 25-25, but a Megan Reza service error and a service ace by Kristin Winkler lifted the Anteaters to a 27-25 first-set victory.
UCR fell behind 16-13 midway through the second set, but rallied back to tie it at 16 thanks to a UCI service error, an Endersby service ace, and a Megan Reza kill.
