However, the Lady Colonels outscored the Lady Storm 10-3 to take a 23-22 lead and then managed to hold on for the 25-23 win.
In the second set, the two teams battled back and forth, with Christian County getting enough late in the set to edge out the Lady Storm 27-25. For the second set in a row, the Lady Colonels found a way to come from behind late in the set to take the win.
