The North Greenville Trailblazers put together a dominant performance in the opening set, but ultimately dropped the final three sets to fall to the Jaguars of Augusta University with a final score of 3-1 in the USC Aiken Invitational in Aiken, South Carolina. Things began with a dominating set one that resulted in 16 kills for the Trailblazers and a 25-14 set win. However, Augusta responded in set two with a dominant set of their own, taking it 25-15.

For the match, the Trailblazers finished with a .171 attack percentage.
Samantha Ball led the way with a double-double, finishing with 15 kills and 16 digs.
