SET 1: Boston College used a seven-point swing early to increase their 4-2 lead to 11-4, capped off by a Wake error after a Morgan Riddle ace.

After an Eagle attack error, BC collected six points on a set of runs, to win the frame 25-15. Haggerty led the way in the opening set with three kills on three attacks.
SET 2:The Eagles executed another fast start in the second set, gathering a 8-2 lead on a six point run.
