Stanhope dropped a second consecutive game, falling to Kyabram 13-66 to 3-59.
A strong result from Robert George, 26-17, put Kyabram in a good position.
Although Stanhope’s Robert Ponton won his rink 21-19, a draw between Justin Spedding (Stanhope) and Greg Shilling (Kyabram) saw Ky hold on to the overall points.
