Aurora, Ill. - The Lake Forest College volleyball team dropped a 30-20, 30-27, 30-21 decision at Aurora University Tuesday (October 24) night. The Foresters fell to 14-13 on the season while the Trojans raised their record to 17-11.

Classmate Nicole Baich (Westchester, Ill./Nazareth Academy) was next on the squad with nine kills.

Senior Kendra Casey (Wauwatosa, Wis./Wauwatosa West) had 24 assists in the contest and is just 72 away from 1,000 for the season.

Sophomore Lisa Sturgill’s (Sheboygan, Wis./Sheboygan South) 21 digs give her 590 for the year, 78 away from the highest single-season total in program history.

Lake Forest will finish up the regular season at Illinois College Friday (October 27) night. The match will begin at 7:00 p.m. The six-team Midwest Conference Tournament will be played the following weekend (November 3-4) at Beloit College.
