At the net, Mitchell finished with a total of six blocks. Black had three, including two solo blocks. 

In the match against the Gorloks, the teams traded the first two sets with a 25-22 score. Blackburn captured the third set 25-10 but Webster answered with a 25-16 set win to force a fifth set. In the deciding set, the teams fought to a 5-5 tie before the Beavers rallied for five straight points to make it 10-5. The guests managed to narrow it to a four point margin twice, but Blackburn held on to win 15-11 to take the set and the match.  

Against the Panthers, BC fell 25-21, 25-14 and 25-13.
