Stanford came back in game three to win decidedly by a score of 30-23 behind a number of service aces from Stanford's Bryn Kehoe (she had a total of 5 for the series). A service ace is a ball that comes at you in such a strange, bizarre or fast way that you can't figure it out end up lying on the floor looking rather puzzled.Stanford won game four in even a more decisive way 30-19. They did this behind the highest 'attack percentage' either team had for the night - basically how many points you get per effort. At this point it seemed that Stanford was on a roll and the crowd, based on the noise level seemed to think that they were on their way to win the tournament.
The fifth and last game started intensely and had wonderful, long rallies, but Penn State went up by 6 points, and with only 15 points needed for the match, Stanford couldn't catch up. After over two hours of play, the championship ended fittingly on a kill from Megan Hodge from Penn - she had a team and tournament high of 26, and was later named player of the game.
