Match Summary
The Ladydawgs were giving up a significant height advantage going into this match, but managed to stay competitive at the beginnings of the first two sets. Staying tied at 7-7 in the first and ratcheting the deficit back down to 15-17 in the second were as close as Grove came to winning a set. The Viking serve kept Grove out of system and their attacking over the Grove middle block was more than the Grove defense could handle.
