HOW IT HAPPENED
-In the first set, the Mighty Macs hung in early in the set, trailing 7-4 in the early going until the Pride went on a 4-0 spurt to make it 11-4. The Macs claimed two of the next seven points and trailed 16-6.  IU trailed late in the set and freshman Bryce Wiltbank had back-to-back kills, but it wasn't enough in a 25-12 loss

-Again, the third set was tight in the early going with the Macs facing three two-point deficits in the middle of it, the last of them at 12-10 after a kill by freshman Garrett Pepper.  Trailing 14-11, the Macs struggled to keep pace as Widener closed out IU, 25-14
