Greenville responded by claiming the next two frames, but the Blue Jays surged back with a dominant 25–16 fourth set to force a decisive fifth. 

The finale was a back-and-forth battle, with Westminster pushing ahead multiple times before Greenville narrowly escaped with the final two-point margin. 

Offensively, Katelynn Jackson led the Blue Jays with 19 kills and 19.5 points, while Paige Rowland added 18 kills and 21 points in a high-volume, high-pressure performance. Samantha Hansen chipped in 10 kills, and Makenzie Sansone added seven. 

VanOverschelde finished with 50 assists, three points, and 12 digs while running the offense through all five sets. Nolte's milestone night included eight kills and nine digs, while libero Haylie Schnake anchored the defense with a match-high 39 digs, keeping the Blue Jays alive in long rallies. 

Westminster totaled 65 kills, 108 digs, and showed championship-level resilience throughout the match, closing the season as SLIAC Tournament runners-up.
