In a close match against the team that has ended championship dreams in the past, No. 10 Penn State beat No. 13 Lewis 3-2 and began to show their development as a team.
“I think we’re starting to find our identity where we’re going to fight, scratch and claw, whatever we got to do to win as long as we need to,” captain Matt Seifert said.
From the start of the set, the Nittany Lions (14-6) and the Flyers (15-11) were locked in a close battle.
In the final points of the set, after tying at 19, the Flyers won four straight to gain a lead before a kill by redshirt sophomore Aidan Albrecht ended their run.
