In the second set the Patriots were able to sustain a small lead, but three points away from capture the game, the Patriots let up and the Tigers the go ahead and gave up the second set, 25-27.

Set three remained close, but with the Lady Patriots starting from behind again, every mistake kept them further from victory.  The ladies were defeated by just three points by the end of the set, 22-25.
