The Oilers once again started strong in the second set, jumping out to an 11-5 lead. They stretched the advantage to 21-10 before Walsh mounted a late push, scoring 10 of the final 15 points, including a 6-1 run. Still, Findlay held firm to claim the 25-20 victory and take a 2-0 lead in the match.

Findlay kept the momentum rolling, building an 11-7 lead that stretched to 18-12. The Oilers never looked back, closing out the set 25-20 to complete the sweep of the Cavaliers.
