Humber came back in the second set with more intensity, however the unpredictable plays coming back from Cambrian proved difficult for the Hawks to be prepared for. Out of system plays continued throughout the second set and Humber pulled through at the end with a tough serve by Michael Majcen on game point.
The final score of the second set was the score of the first two sets was 25-22 for Humber.
During the third set things were flowing much more smoothly and a call against the Hawks at 0-3 gave them some motivation.

A big dig in the back court by Simon at 23-16 for Humber gave the Hawks the extra push to close out the match.
The final score for Humber was 25-16.
