Lindsay Chace (E. Providence, R.I.) added nine kills for the Raiders (17-12), who won for the sixth time in their last eight outings, taking the match 25-21, 25-17, 19-25, 25-18 with Daniel Webster earning their first set victory in the series since the 2001 season.

Raider setter Lauren Saccoccio (Warwick, R.I.) dished out 27 assists for Rivier, adding three kills and three digs, while her counterpart Caitie Callahan (Dedham, M.A.) set up 11 assists.

The opening set saw 10 ties and four lead changes and was tied at 16 before an Emileigh Cenedella (Townsend, Mass.) ace and Finlayson kill opened a two-point lead (18-16) the Raiders would not relinquish.

The Eagles would close the gap to 22-21 on a Raider error, but back-to-back Jacques kills helped close out the 25-21 win.

Rivier jumped out to 12-2 lead in set two aided by two kills from Kate-Lyn Breault (Hudson, N.H.) and four unforced Eagle errors on the way to the 25-17 win.

The Eagles regrouped in the third. Tied at 7-7, the Eagles jumped ahead on a Raider attack error along with four straight points at the service line that kept them in the lead for good.

Rivier trailed just once in the fourth (1-2) and maintained a three-point edge as late as 20-17 before back-to-back kills from Jacques and Chace built a five point lead and Courtney Cookson (Hooksett, N.H.) closed out the match with an ace.
