Quick start for the Bears leads to a 5-1 lead, followed by a quick correction by the Redbirds, 5 all.

8 all now.


3-0 Redbird run ties it at 11. It feels like they have seized the momentum.

Fun match so far.

No doubt. A well played match. Huge stuff block at 22 all for the Redbirds, they scored again to lead 24-22. MSU survived 1 set point but lost an incredible point at 23-24 to drop the 3rd set, 25-23 ISU and the Redbirds lead 2-1. Take heed Shocks....don't play from behind.

Redbirds, 25-23 in set three. Kaitlyn Early, the all-conference setter, rescues a really bad pass to get a swing for her hitter that goes to the floor.

Just watched the replay - a one-handed bump set as she is sliding off the court. Wow!!
