The second set came out with the same energy. West was down 6-10 in the middle of the second set, with an ace from junior Lucy Schmid they were able to tie the game 12-12. The Trojans kept fighting with powerhouse junior Melae’ Lacey putting many kills on the board, pulling the Trojans to 23-23, but they were not able to come back and the Warriors took the second set.
