All-star Erika Dodd added 14 points, while Cassidy Andrews pitched in with 11 points of her own.
After cruising to a first-set victory over the Mountaineers, the Hawks struggled to play to the level they've exhibited all season, allowing Mohawk to go on runs off of unforced errors.
In the deciding set, All-Canadian Keyome Ellis used a stuffed block to get the momentum behind the Hawks. A few points later, Erika Dodd came flying from the backcourt with another big kill, extending Humber's lead to four. At the line with match point, Dodd recorded her second ace of the match, securing the victory for the Hawks, 3-2.
