Ikenaga’s ace got Hawaii within 22-21, but consecutive kills by Lizzy Markovska got Cal Poly to set point. The second kill fell to the floor after a miscommunication by the Rainbow Wahine.

Hawaii went on a 6-0 run with Ikenaga serving for a 19-14 lead in the fourth set. Igiede was a part of three double-blocks during the spurt. Alexander had an ace during a 5-0 run, which put the Rainbow Wahine ahead 24-15. Cal Poly saved one match point, but a hitting error by Markovska ended it.
