The Bucs fell behind 11-6 in the first set, but used a kill by Didanovic to trigger a five-point spurt to tie things up. The Sailfish bumped their lead back to three before Allen put down one of Jenny Trinidad's 28 assists to cut it to 16-15. But PBA used a kill by Emma Ballantyne to pad the lead to 20-17. An attack error by Rohn pulled the Bucs within one, but the Sailfish used another 4-0 run to extend the lead to 24-19 before putting the set away.

PBA hit .345 in the first set. Barry hit .286. 

The Bucs played the Sailfish pretty much point for point midway through the second set, taking a 14-13 lead on a kill by Allen. But a kill by Ragland and a Bucs setting error gave the Sailfish an 18-15 lead. A kill by Kaitlin Drake and Kristina Filimonova's ace pulled the Buccaneers within 18-17, but the Sailfish cushioned the lead to 20-18 on a kill by Rohn. Drake had a kill, and Filimonova and Allen combined on a block to keep the Bucs within one, 23-22, but PBA snatched the final two points to take a 2-0 lead into intermission.

The Bucs trailed by as many as four in the final set, but a block by Filimonova and Trinidad pulled Barry within 16-15. Didanovic put away a ball to keep the Bucs within one, and after a kill by Rohn, Barry's Serbian middle blocker sent another kill to the floor to tie it up, 20-20.
