Volleyball
Noon & 2:00 p.m. | LaGrange & Agnes Scott | LaGrange, Ga.
Watch | Live Stats vs. LaGrange
 
The Scots close the regular season with a tri-match at LaGrange against the host Panthers and Agnes Scott. Maryville at 9-5 sits in fourth place, one game behind Piedmont (10-4) and Berea (10-4). Those two teams play Saturday at Huntingdon, which is tied with Maryville at 9-5. The race for a top-four finish means hosting rights in the CCS Volleyball Tournament quarterfinals, set for Nov. 7. The advantage of finishing third or better is avoiding a matchup against first-place Covenant until the tournament championship game.

Maryville welcomes first-place Belhaven to kick off its closing three-game stretch. The Scots are even at 2-2 in the USA South and already have matched last year's overall win total of five. Belhaven arrives perfect at 7-0 overall and 5-0 in the USA South. QB Bryson Rollins was named Offensive Player of the Week both by the USA South and the Tennessee Sports Writers Association. Rollins accounted for all four Maryville touchdowns in the 26-6 victory against LaGrange, with three on the ground and one through the air. His three rushing TDs were a career game high. Mike Bethea had a big game last week with six tackles, a sack and a forced fumble.
