Both teams were eager to win set four, but the Red Flash came out on top in the end. Errors by the Red Flash gave the Skyhawks a tense 19-20 lead before a kill by Hogan tied the set. Another error allowed Stonehill to regain the lead, but it was short-lived for the Skyhawks, as a kill by Eicher and an error of their own swung the score in Saint Francis' favor at 22-21. Each team gave up a service error to keep the Red Flash up one. Another error by Stonehill created the match-point scenario for the Red Flash, with Kori McClure (Westerville, Ohio) claiming the match-winning kill.

The Red Flash took a strong lead early in the first set. An attack error by Stonehill got what would become a seven-point run. Eicher earned two service aces.

Set three went back and forth, tying at 15 apiece before the Red Flash could pull ahead of the Skyhawks. Hogan registered the tie-breaking kill and earned two service aces in the eight-point run which would help capture the win in set three.

A Red Flash error ending the run, but the Skyhawks returned the favor, making a service and an attack error to allow Saint Francis to win the set.
