Cloquet took the first point of game one and didn't look back that game, with leads of 6-1, 12-3, and 17-7. Hermantown battled back to get within 22-17 but the 'Jacks finished game one with a 25-18 win.

Game two started close, with a 6-6 score, but that quickly became 6-19 with Hermantown going on a big run to take control of the second game, and winning that 25-13.

Cloquet took the third game 25-20, starting with a 2-1 lead, that because a 5-6 deficit, but a run to 10-6 built enough lead that they held on throughout, with Hermantown cutting it to 16-13 and 17-14 but not getting closer than those three points.

Hermantown won game four with an identical 25-20 score to Cloquet's game three win, though Cloquet took a 15-14 lead midway through the game, the Hawks outscored them 11-5 from that point. The fifth game was just as tight, with both teams exchanging points, with the game tied at 10's, 11's, 12's, 13's, 14's and 15's and 16's. The 'Jacks lead 14-13 but weren't able to win that match point. They battled back from 14-15 and 15-16 to tie at 16's but dropped the final 2 points to finish down 16-18.
