EMU was able to grab a healthy lead early in set two, but RMC chipped away at the seven-point deficit to cut it to two points, but the Royals were able to hold on late in the frame to even the score at one.
Despite never going on a run of more than three points, RMC took the lead and sustained the lead throughout the third set. The margin was once 15-7 and RMC held on through the remainder to take a 2-1 lead in the match.
The lead flipped hands multiple times in the fourth set, with RMC holding the lead for the beginning of the frame until EMU ignited a 5-0 run that gave them a 15-12 lead that they would not give up, sending the match to a deciding set five.
Once again, RMC had a lead early in the fifth, holding a 9-6 advantage. The Royals then broke out for a 7-0 run to take a 13-9 lead but was answered by a 6-1 run by RMC, giving the Yellow Jackets match point. The Royals won four of the final five points of the set to pull off the upset.
