A nifty set by Katie Schlepp for her sister Kylee to bump the ball over for a late 16-14 lead, and a huge kill shot by Ashley Beckham to the back line put Conrad up 19-14. Another neat set by Katie Schlepp for a kill shot by Lyndsey Green to get the score to 23-15. Judisch put the first game in the saddle bags with an ace, 25-15.
In the second game, Jenny Silvernale got a kill shot with Conrad trailing to make the score 16-19. Later Heather Newmiller made a super diving save, popping the round ball up for a kill shot by Judisch, putting Conrad up 22-21. King put the game away with back-to-back ace serves, 25-22.
Kylee Schlepp opened service in the rubber game and went on a 5-0 run and Conrad never trailed. Kelsey Zomer added a four-point run getting the team up to 9-3. Katie Schlepp iced the match with a kill shot.
The Cowgirls ripped back 34 kill shots, 14 more than Shelby, led by Katie Schlepp with 13. She also had 10-24 assists. King dropped in 6-11 aces, Newmiller got 12-41 digs and Kylee Schlepp had 4-9 blocked shots.
