From the start, things weren't looking too hot for the Eagles. The Knights took a nine-point lead early.

This match was a remarkable turnaround for the Eagles, with this being their first win in the week. The Cardinals took an early lead when they put up 25 points and held down their opponent to 18. The Eagles quickly turned this around and took set two by a score of 28-26. This was looking like a good opportunity for the Eagles to end the week on a positive note, but it wasn't over yet. Set three was intense, but the Eagles managed to sneak in just a few points to take the game. OHS 18 28 26 2 BCHS 25 26 24 1
