After a side out, Sophia Knapp passed to Khuu who set the middle for a Chen-Mallouk slam. Weber finished it off with a kill and a Wolverine 25-22 win.

A Chen-Mallouk block was followed by a Weber back row kill and a Knapp ace stretched the lead to 18-15. With all the momentum, BHS ran away and took the game 25-17 send the match to game five.

 

Back to back Huard kills tied the last game at 2.

After a long rally, Chen-Mallouk got the kill. A Redmond double hit was followed by a Witham back row crush. Chen-Mallouk finished off the game and the match with a cross court gem and a 15-9 victory. Bellevue ended game 5 with a 12-2 and 8-0 run and showed grit and determination coming back from 0-2 to take the match.
