from the McGhee sisters. They continued their rampage with Kara McGhee getting a kill and then Elise McGhee up next, the score now 5-1. BU had an ace served up by Simpson and then the run came to an end, seven-straight points scored, with a kill from Kara,

Baylor called time after an attack error at 10-4. Talbert got her second ace of the match at 10-7, assisting in closing the gap. TTU kept at it, and got an ace of their own at 14-10. Sczech got a kill but the bleeding had begun, now 16-12. Kenna Sauer of the
