MONMOUTH, Illinois—The Prairie Fire fell on the road at Monmouth 77-60 on Tuesday night.

Knox (9-7, 4-7 MWC) scored first, but never led again in the game. After keeping pace with the Fighting Scots for most of the first quarter, the Prairie Fire fell behind 17-9 by the conclusion of the quarter. By halftime, Knox trailed 40-21. The Prairie Fire put up a fight in the third quarter, but could not gain much ground.

Hailey Leinart (Gurnee, IL, Warren Township) led Knox with 21 points, finishing 4-of-9 from beyond the arc. Saundra Gavazzi (Gilbert, AZ, Chandler) added 16 points to round out the double-digit scoring. Jamie Blue (Urbana, IL, University) and Morgan Potter (Huntington Beach, CA, Huntington Beach) each finished with five boards to lead the Prairie Fire.
