In the teams' only meeting this season, NIU also came out on top in DeKalb in four sets on senior night. NIU used strong serving - 9-3 aces edge - to beat BGSU 25-23, 18-25, 25-19, 25-18 for the fourth straight time. NIU is set for its third straight MAC title appearance, sixth overall, and second as a No. 4 seed. The Huskies enter the final match of the tournament with a 6-2 mark in the last three MAC Tournaments and have won six of their last seven matches overall.
