A service ace by Christina Estebane’ won the match for the Lady Hawks at 31-29.

Another rally by Lady Rattlers behind the play of senior Hannah Uckelman, who recorded the Lady Rattlers last three points, would end the game at 30-24.

Florida A&M scored the first four points during game four. The Lady Hawks answered with a kill by Estebane’ to get on the board. Florida A&M held a one point advantage over Maryland Eastern Shore 20-19 when a combination of kills for the Lady Rattlers and attack errors by Maryland Eastern Shore allowed Florida A&M to win the game 30-21.

“I am so pleased with the way we played, explained Maryland Eastern Shore Head Coach Don Metil.
