Lyon is a biochemistry major with aspirations to attend medical school upon graduation. This season, Lyon has three goals and one assist as a defensive/holding midfielder.

Bylsma, a 2018 CoSIDA Academic All-American®, led the Flying Dutchmen with 13 goals and a career-high 31 points; Bylsma also recorded a career-best five assists. Bylsma helped Hope post its second consecutive season with at least 14 wins for the first time since 2004-05. Bylsma is a public accounting major.
