HOW IT HAPPENED 
  • The teams traded points to open set one but with the score tied at 4-4, Campbell went on a 3-0 run to pull ahead 7-4. Elon chipped away at the lead eventually trailing by only one at 10-9. From there a kill from Catherine Rucker and a block from Cameron Lanier and Rucker knotted the score at 11-11. The Phoenix won five of the next six points to gain a three-point lead at 15-12. The teams went back and forth and with Elon up 22-17, the Phoenix won three straight points thanks to kills from Lindsey Harris and Sydney Love and an ace from Annabelle Schall to end set one on top 25-17.

With the score tied at 15-15, three straight Love kills put Elon ahead three at 18-15. Elon won four of the next six points to extend their lead to five at 22-15. Campbell got back within three at 23-20 but back-to-back kills from Lanier closed set two with Elon winning 25-20.
