Great ball placement and execution late in the game helped Miami secure the victory and force a fifth and final game. The RedHawks confidence and focus grew as the unforced errors and minor mistakes were eliminated.
"We were able to play much better defense on their big hitter and eliminate our own mistakes in that fifth game," Condit said.
The RedHawks came out of their huddle fired up for the fifth game. Miami before Saturday night's game had been just 2-2 in five-game matches, while the Broncos had not lost this season when the match went to a fifth game.
Miami took control early and finished off the Broncos with a crushing kill from freshman Michele Metzler. The 'Hawks won the fifth game 15-10 and won the match 3-2.
The RedHawks' next match will be Friday night at Ohio University, when the RedHawks will take on the No. 17 Bobcats.
The Bobcats haven't lost a regular season MAC game in the past three years, winning their last 64 matches, and are the four-time defending MAC champions.
"We always get under their skin and play well against them," Condit said. "They are a good team, but they're beatable. It would be sweet if we could end their win streak on their home court."
