The Eagles let the opponent gain the upper-hand early on, but clutched up and took the game for themselves; 3-1; 23-25, 25-16, 25-22 & 26-24.

Just a few days passed and the Eagles were back at it, this time pitted against a tough 18-6 Pierce team. The Bluejays left the Eagles in the dust from the start and never let them catch up.
