Galesburg, IL – The Prairie Fire will have to wait a little longer before getting a shot at a second straight win to begin the 2013 season.

Knox, coming off a 2-1 road victory against MacMurray College on March 7, was scheduled to play at Robert Morris University-Springfield on March 11.  The game, however, has been postponed and a make-up date is pending.
