In the consolation bracket, the Panthers bounced back in a match against Azusa Pacific. Liedbeck and Boyd lost the first set 4-6 but came back to take the second second 7(7)-6(3) and send the match to a third set tiebreak. The Cats pushed Azusa Pacific to the brink and pulled off a clutch 10-8 victory to secure their first win of the weekend.
