They never gave up the lead again and worked themselves back up by 4 at 23-19 before taking the 1st set by 3. Ashlyn Badding was fantastic in the 1st set setting up both her middles on slides and in the middle as Sophie Badding and Frannie Glynn both had big sets.

The Tigers took control of set 3 early and never trailed and were never tied. They went up 5-1 and 7-2 before Kuemper settled down and started to chip away. Sophie Badding had a big block to cut it to 11-9 and it looked like Kuemper might make a run. The Knights struggled with their serve all night and it hurt them in the 3rd set. Red Oak kept Kuemper from getting on a run and built their lead back to 15-11 and eventually led 23-17. Red Oak took the 3rd set 25-19 and headed into the 4th set with a lot of confidence.

Things didn’t go well for Kuemper after taking a 1-0 lead, Red Oak ran out to a 14-4 lead and never looked back. Kuemper pulled within 8 but were never able to get closer. The loss drops Kemper to 4-4 on the season while Red Oak improves to 4-3.
