Yoder and Krause each tallied 11. Biggs contributed with 36 assists and added two aces. Defensively, Showers recorded 25 digs and Kelsey Jo Vogler and Yoder totaled seven blocks apiece.

The Lady Lions opened the tournament on Friday with a 20-25, 25-22, 25-19, 22-25, 13-15 loss to Freed-Hardeman (Tenn.) before being swept by nationally ranked Georgetown (Ky.), 11-25, 13-25, 20-25.

After dropping the first set, the Lady Lions responded by taking the next two, but failed to close the door against Freed-Hardeman. Ellen Fandry led the team with 16 kills and five blocks. She also had a team high two aces. Yoder tallied 15 kills, Krause had 14 and Kelsey Kennedy added 12. Showers had a season high 36 digs, and Biggs also netted a season best, 59 assists.
