HOW IT HAPPENED
Set 1
The match began with both teams testing each other out in the early going. The Irish made the first run, using an 8-2 stretch to build a 14-5 lead. Soon after, Notre Dame embarked on another run of 11-2 that carried them all the way to a first set victory, 25-8.

Set 2
The Eagles hung even with the Irish in the early going, but a 5-0 run by the Irish gave them a five-point lead at 10-5. BC got back within one on three separate occasions, but wouldn't get any closer as Notre Dame pulled away with three-straight points to lead, 17-13. Notre Dame led the rest of the way and won, 25-19.

Set 3
Julia Topor recorded a kill to tie the set at 7-7. From there, the Irish scored 10 of the next 12 points to take a 17-9 lead. BC grabbed a few points back towards the end of the set, but the Notre Dame advantage was too much to overcome and it won, 25-17.
