In set two, it was Omaha that held the upper hand for much of the way. The Mavericks worked out to an 11-5 lead, helped by three early Schimmer kills and a Schmale/O'Shaughnessy block. The score was pushed to 18-12 UNO with a block by Schimmer and junior middle blocker Diane Banderas, prompting a Coyote timeout. USD then came out on an 8-2 run and tied the game at 20-20. Omaha went ahead by two with a Horkey kill and a USD error, but the Coyotes tied it again at 22-all and 23-all, then took their first lead on an ace from Jessen. After UNO called a timeout, USD closed the set at 25-23 with a block by Dimke and Melissa Firtko.

South Dakota used the same momentum going into the third game, taking an 11-2 advantage. Despite six Maverick kills from Wollak, the Coyotes never relinquished their lead and hit .333 in the final set. They went on to take a 25-20 win for the 3-0 sweep.
