Kaiel Maynor led the Scarlet Raiders with 11 kills with Alexa Rivera close behind with 10. With the set tied at 17, Gwynedd Mercy went on a 5-0 run to take the lead.

For just the third time this season, the Scarlet Raiders took a set from their opponent. Rutgers-Newark fell behind early but went on a 6-0 run that started with a Rivera kill to go up 16-12.
