For the first time since 2016, the Pack defeated both Florida State and Miami in the same season. The two wins were also the first against both opponents under head coach Luka Slabe.
Senior setter Kristen McDaniel tallied 23 assists on the afternoon.

Set Two (25-20)

Set Three (20-25)
Miami took a 8-5 lead and the Pack struggled to maintain the momentum from the first two sets. At one point, the Hurricanes held a 21-14 lead over the Wolfpack. Errors by Miami and kills by the Pack allowed NC State to make it 19-24. A service ace by Leoniak stopped the Canes from scoring match point and made the set 20-24, but Miami scored the next point to take the set.
Set Four (25-21)
