CBU jumped out to a dominating start in the opening quarter, as the Lancers swept partner stunts, 4-0. The Lancers showed no signs of slowing down in the second quarter, as the team took all four rounds in the pyramid and tosses to go into the half up 8-0.
The perfect game continued in the third quarter, as the Lancers dominated all four rounds in jumps and tumbling.
The Lancers put away the Lopes in the fourth quarter, winning a point in each of the final nine rounds to secure the perfect 21-0 victory.
