In the fourth, SJC, with a chance to force a fifth set, squandered a 25-24 lead and eventually dropped a 29-27 decision, resulting in a 3-1 defeat.
In a match that saw the hosts put down 20 kills, sophomore Paul Curaro recorded a game-high 20 kills. Sophomores Will Flohr and Kyle Biggers went for 12 and 10 kills, respectively.
Senior Michael Barfield dished out a team-high 34 assists and junior Danny McNamara was credited with 18 digs.
