23-25, 25-20, 25-18, 25-21
Kuemper suffered their first conference loss, dropping the three sets in a row after winning a highly contested opening set. The Knights swung well in the opening set but struggled against an aggressive block by Glenwood and an even more aggressive serve. The Rams did an outstanding job of adjusting to the Kuemper block, keeping the Knights off-balance, forcing them to play out of system most of the match. Kuemper had chances in every set, trailing 21-19 in set two, up 8-7 in set three and trailed 18-17 in set four.

Addy Anthofer kept the Knights in striking distance with kills to pull the Knights within 10-9 and tying the set at 11. Alivia Schenkelberg tied the match at 15 with a kill and Addy Anthofer put them up 16-15 with her third kill of the set. Glenwood tied it at 16 but Mariah Heuton put Kuemper up 17-16 with a kill. The Knights stretched the lead to 19-16 on a kill from Kolbi Peter and held on to win 25-23. The lead changed three times in set two and was tied five times but Kuemper couldn’t get a string of kills together, finishing with four in the set. That allowed Glenwood to find a rhythm, taking the lead for good at 9-8 but using a 5-0 run after Kuemper pulled within 15-14 to take control of the set. Addy Anthofer gave the Knights a chance with a kill, pulling them within 21-19 but the Rams scored four of the last five points to win.
The third set was similar to set two early with the lead changing hands three times and tied up four times. Zoe Brunning served Kuemper to a 3-0 lead with an ace serve and Elsa Tiefenthaler having a overpass kill. The Rams responded with a 3-0 run but Kuemper went back up 6-3 with Elsa Tiefenthaler having an ace. Glenwood responded again, going up 7-6 and taking the lead for good at 9-8. Brianna Wittrock had a kill, followed by an ace, pulling the Knights within 12-10 but Glenwood built the lead to 21-13. Addy Anthofer had a pair of kills, around a kill from Kolbi Peter late as Kuemper fought to within 21-16 but the Rams pulled back away to take a two sets to one lead. Kolbi Peter put Kuemper up 1-0 in set four but they never led again as Glenwood took charge at the net with Kaylee Wray, Charley Hernandez and Ilsa Kemling control the middle and outside. Kuemper battled, keeping it close, pulling within 9-7 and 21-19 on a kill by Addy Anthofer but they weren’t able to tie the set and fell 25-21.
