Fairfield had to skate by with only a one-set margin when they last took the court, which might have inspired the three-set drubbing they dealt McClain on Wednesday. The Lions were the clear victors by a 3-0 margin over the Tigers. The Lions were shut out 3-0 the last time they took on the Tigers, so the Lions were just returning the favor.
One reason for the win was Fairfield's just kept getting better, winning each set by more points than the last. The final score came out to 26-24, 25-20, 25-18.
Remi Moon paced Fairfield's offense, picking up 15 kills. Moon got some help from Paisley Stahlhut and her 23 assists. Stahlhut was also solid from the service line: she led the team with three aces.
When it comes to explaining why McClain lost, don't look at Lillie Saunders. Despite the final result, she had 24 digs.
