Set One (23-25)
It was a back and forth battle for the two teams. The Pack trailed to start, but tied it up 9-9. Clemson arrived upon match point, 24-22, but the Pack wasn't ready for the set to end – a set from McDaniel and a kill by Vanja Bukilic brought the Pack within one of the Tigers. Clemson went on to win the next point and take the set. Williams led the Wolfpack with six kills.

Set Three (25-17)
The Tigers challenged two calls early in the set, both due to believing the Pack was in the net. Clemson won both, forcing the set to become tied five all. The Pack struggled to gain momentum and overcome the Tigers' dominant attacks. After going on a 6-2 run, NC State held onto the lead for the rest of the set and took seven straight points to take set three.
Set Four (22-25)
Clemson went on a 5-1 run to open the set. The Pack struggled to maintain the momentum from the end of the third set. After a challenge by head coach Luka Slabe, the Pack came within one of the Tigers. The two teams battled back and forth, but the Tigers came out on top.
