The Raiders couldn't find anything offensively in the second set, only having four kills and four attacking errors to get blown away 25-15.
- The Raiders finally found the spark they needed as the third set began with Shavitz started with back-to-back kills on a 11-4 run. Ian Glashagel and Seth Thomas each added multiple kills to pull away as far as a nine-point lead, which proved useful after a long Cardinal run to hold them off 25-21.

Later in the set, an ace from Thomas tied things back up at 21 with each sides taking two in a row to stay knotted at 23.
