Kuemper 3
Glenwood 2
22-25, 21-25, 27-25, 25-11, 15-8
Kuemper kept their hopes of an outright Hawkeye 10 Conference title alive, but it wasn’t easy as the Knights had to rally from down 2-0. The match started well for Kuemper, building an 11-3 led, but they were outscored 34-14 through the rest of set one and into set two. Glenwood was the aggressor, diving for balls, getting blocks and confusing the Knights on where to hit the ball. After those quick 11 points in set one, Kuemper hit the ball long most of the time, trying to roll it over the Rams block which was doing a nice job getting blocks and touches. Kuemper struggled to keep their setters near the net, impacting their ability to get good sets to their hitters. Glenwood was playing with a lot of confidence, serving well, swinging aggressively at the net. They took set one 25-22, then jumped ahead 12-3 and 14-5 in set two. Kuemper made a run in set two, cutting the deficit to 17-15 . The Rams got Kuemper out of system on the serve and finished the set, outscoring the Knights 8-6 to win 25-21 and lead 2-0.
Glenwood scored the first point of set three, but Kuemper settled in and went on a service run by Ashlyn Badding. They took a 3-2 lead, building the led to 16-11. The Rams wouldn’t go away in set three and kept hanging around but the Knights were doing a much better job using the Rams hands, scoring on their attacks and not hitting the ball long. The back row adjusted to the Rams serve and put Macy Simons and Ashlyn Badding in better shape. Glenwood rallied, tying the third set at 17 and taking their first lead 20-19. Kuemper grabbed the lead back 22-21 and held off the Rams who tied it at 23, 24 and 25 but never took the lead. Brianna Wittrock ended the third set with an ace to give Kuemper a 27-25 win. Kuemper fell down 1-0 in set four but never looked back after that, going up 6-1 as Kaci Peter continued to swing very well. The lead eventually grew to 23-8 before the Rams scored 3 straight but Kuemper squashed their momentum, getting a kill from Frannie Glynn to end the set 25-11. Kuemper never trailed in set five and was only tied at 1. They went ahead 4-1 but again the Rams wouldn’t go away. They pulled within 7-6 but the Knights had too much momentum, pulling away for a 13-7 lead. Brianna Wittrock put the match away with a kill.
Kaci Peter had a big all-around night, leading Kuemper with 14 kills to go with 7 blocks and 7 digs.
