The Ospreys went 10 for 14 on attacks, hitting .714 and avoiding any errors in the frame, sealing a 15-5 victory. Kennesaw State fought valiantly but could not halt the Ospreys' relentless offensive surge. The match began in a tightly contested contest on the Georgia Southern campus, with the first set ending in a 28-26 victory for Kennesaw State. Haley Patterson and Ashley Theiss powered the win, securing a two-point margin. The Owls rebounded to capture the second set 25-22, but North Florida took control in the third set, winning 25-20 and moving to a 2-1 lead.
