In the second set, the Devils led 10-5 before the Pioneers fought back and eventually rattled off nine-straight points to claim a 17-12 lead. Isabel Valentine and Kataleya Milan led the way for the Pioneers with seven kills apiece.

Match Two:
After dropping the first two sets, the Devils managed to counter by scoring eight of the last 10 points in set number three to fight back to 2-1. The fourth set was a neck-and-neck battle throughout, with each team staving off match-points. Holding a 30-29 lead, FDU-Florham finally put an end to the set when Gaffney killed a set from Codi Inloes-Williams (Palmer Lake, Colo./Liberty) and evened the match at two games aside.
