Game two was all Northwestern early on, up 18-9 at one point, before Michigan State stormed back to tie it and forcing two game points. The Spartans eventually beat the Wildcats 32-30. Outblocking the Spartans 4-3 at that point, Jill Buschur (New Bremen, Ohio/New Bremen) added three kills on six attempts in the game. Lodzik was six for 13.
Michigan State took any momentum away from the Wildcats in game three, handing them a 30-19 loss.
