Lancaster Bible 3, Wilson 0
25-23, 25-18, 29-27

All three sets were close, but the Chargers were able to pull each of the three out in the end and snapped a six-match losing streak in the process. After a somewhat sloppy first set from each team, Lancaster Bible took control of the match in the second set as the Chargers smashed 16 kills in the second frame en route to a 25-18 win. The third set appeared to be going to the Chargers easily as they led 24-18, but Wilson rattled off six straight points to tie the set at 24-24. With the set tied at 27-27, Lancaster Bible used a service error from Wilson and a kill from Gentry to ice the match and win, 29-27.
