HOW IT HAPPENED
SET 1
The Warhawks won the first set 25-23 after Montevallo came back from a 22-19 deficit to tie it at 22-22 and again at 23-23. A Montevallo service error put the orange and black at set point, and Mya Lacey finished the set with a kill from Kinsley Kennedy.
 
SET 2
AUM erased an 8-5 deficit and built a 14-10 lead, with Lacey contributing two kills and a service ace during that stretch. The Warhawks later led 19-17 on Jaslyn Montgomery's kill from Addison Vinson, but Montevallo scored the next six points and took the set 25-20.
 
SET 3
Gabriella Wokatsch provided the orange and black's most consistent attack in the third set, recording five kills, while Vinson added a kill and repeatedly set up Warhawks points. Montevallo used a late stretch to move from 18-13 to 24-13, and despite back-to-back kills by Lacey and Wokatsch at set point, the home team finished the set 25-15.
 
SET 4
