BATESVILLE, Ark. - With two games left in the regular season, a win against the Stephens Stars would have been just what the Lyon College Scots volleyball team would need to host two games in the American Midwest Conference tournament that begins in two weeks.

However, the Scots (10-14, 4-4) will have to wait and see where the conference regular season ends before they find out what the tournament holds. On Saturday afternoon, Lyon College battled to a heart-breaking 3-2 loss to the Stars in Becknell Gymnasium.

The Scots were fourth in the AMC standings before playing Stephens College, but now have dropped to sixth place with Missouri Baptist and Harris-Stowe State left on the regular season schedule.

The Stars took the first set on Saturday 25-23, but the Scots fought back to win the second set 25-16. The third set went to Stephens College 25-15, but Lyon College rebounded with a 25-19 win in the fourth set. In the deciding fifth set, Stephens edged the Scots 15-12.

Kylee Sabella led Lyon College with 10 kills, while Paeton Tucker and Jayden Hughes both finished with eight kills each. Tucker had two ace serves, Erin Haigwood had one and Natalia Szymanska had one ace, as well. Isabella Bealsey, Hughes and Szymanska all had one block each for a point, Layla Wilson led in assists with18, Cassidy Garrett had eight and Beasley finished with five assists. Haigwood, the AMC's conference leader in digs, had 18 against Stephens College, Sabella had 21 and Tucker made 13 digs.
