How It Happened
- Wilson appeared to come out with all cylinders running as it took an early 3-1 lead thanks to a pair of Niki Schussler (So., Chambersburg, Pa. / Cumberland Valley Christian) aces, but the Ravens were quick to tie the set. Menedis put the Phoenix up once more at 4-3 with a kill, but Rosemont went on an 8-0 run to take control of the game.
- After falling in the second set, the Phoenix looked to get some momentum back in the third. Consecutive kills from Menedis and Allyson Garcelon (Fy., Shrewsbury, Pa. / Susquehannock) helped as it put Wilson up 4-2. However, a 5-0 run by the Ravens once again gave them the advantage. Wilson chipped away through the rest of the night, but couldn't regain the lead.
