The two teams traded sets one and two, with the Belles winning the opening set 26-24, while the Lady Buffs rebounded to even it up with a 25-22 decision in set two.

The Belles out-hit the Lady Buffs .277 to .132 over the final two sets, winning those sets 25-17 and 25-20. The Belles' defense held WT's high-powered offense to a .201 attack percentage, their sixth-lowest mark of the season.
