TURNING POINT OF THE GAME
In the first set, the Red Flash went on a 7-2 run to bring the energy to their home arena. It started with back-to-back errors from FDU at the net and line. Dorn had a nice kill down the left side that bounced off the liberos shoulder. Next was middle blocker Sam Lane, whose kill did not touch the opponents' hands on the way down. Lane grabbed another kill that was set up by Charles. Finally, yet again, Lane collected himself an ace. To end the set with a win, Brady Stump and Grayden Gall registered a duo block. 

FLASH MOMENTS 
Down one early in the second set, Saint Francis went on a small 4-1 run. Charles set up Zini on the right side for a kill and then Stump followed with one of his own. Charles looked for Zini, who grabbed a wide-open kill. To end the run, Gall collected the second ace for the Red Flash.  

The Red Flash went on a nice little 4-0 run to aid in their win during the third. Charles set up Gall with a low ball in the middle for a clean kill. Dorn recorded a solo kill right before Zini had back-to-back kills, both of which were assisted by Charles. Nicholas Lynch finished the game off with an ace.
