IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

1st Set

  • The score was tied four times throughout the first eight serves. San Francisco then went on a 6-1 run to take a 10-5 lead.
  • Pacific answered with a 5-2 run that knotted the game at 12-12. 
  • The two squads were tied four more times in the set, at points 13, 14, 15, and 24.

  • Riley Patterson and Lucy Carpenter put the set away with consecutive kills at 25-24 and 26-24, respectively. 
     

2nd Set

  • The second set seemed as though it was going to be another back and forth match. The Tigers controlled a majority of the set, taking it largest lead (12-9) on consecutive kills by Kennedy Kaminsky.
  • San Francisco battled back and took its first and final lead (16-15) of the set on a service ace by Orsula Staka. 
  • The Dons would go on to out-score the Tigers 8-3, which included five consecutive points to put them at set point, 24-18. 
     

3rd Set

  • There was a tie score five times in the set with the final tie at 15-15.
  • Following a 15-12 Dons lead, Pacific won seven straight serves to regain a lead at 18-16. 
  • San Francisco would inch within two points twice more (19-17 and 23-21), but the Tigers would eventually claim the set by a score of 25-21.
     

4th Set

  • Pacific controlled the set from the first serve. With a 12-9 lead, the Tigers went on a 5-0 run to gain a significant eight point lead. 
  • Despite nearly matching point for point the remainder of the set, Pacific had already pulled out of reach and cruised to the 25-16 win.

     

STATISTICALLY SPEAKING
