Summit was able to score only 1 more point when they had the serve as Deary sided out well and added points on their serve for a 7-point win. The second game saw Summit fall behind 1-5 before Deary missed a serve. Lucy Osborne then put together a great service run to put Summit into the lead.

An ace by Beckman put Summit at game point at 24-20 but Deary fought off game point 3 times before Summit called timeout at 24-23.

Summit fell behind early in the third game as well but fought back to take a 10-9 lead on an ace by Rachel Waters. Deary took back the lead but Summit quickly reclaimed it on 2 aces by Kayla Rehder.
