Scots score three quick
goals to beat Hendrix

CONWAY -- Barlow Hardin and the Hendrix College Warriors scored the opening goal, but watched as Lyon College fired off three goals in a matter of six minutes in a 3-2 win for the Scots in a non-conference affair on Tuesday evening.

Tim Akin, Peter Smith and Steve Banks scored the flash goals in the 14^th, 16^th and 20^th minutes of the game, respectively. Jonathon Knowles assisted on Akin’s score, Tobi Osinowo had an assist on Smith’s goal and Smith collected his third point of the game when he earned the assist on Banks’ shot into the net.

Hardin scored two goals, including one on a penalty kick in the 62^nd minute to help the Warriors close to 3-2.

Scots goal keeper Matt Callaway played all 90 minutes, saving four shots.

Lyon evens its record to 8-8-1 this season. Hendrix falls to 6-7-2.

The Scots are idle and awaiting the outcome of an Oct. 28^th game between Lambuth and Freed-Hardeman, which will likely decide Lyon’s fate on whether or not it qualifies for the TranSouth Conference Tournament.
