Coach Funk said, "Mac did a great job of putting pressure on us with serve and they never let us get on a run in the last 3 sets. Against a team like that, you need to win the serve and receive battle and we weren't able to do that tonight." Maddie DeDecker led the offense again with 15 points (13 kills, 2 aces) followed by Nicole Collard (5 kills, 2 aces, 3 blocks) and Becky Breau (9 kills, 1 ace) with 10 each. The Gryphons end the first half schedule with a 6-4 record, good for 2nd place in the OUA's West Division.
