MONMOUTH, Illinois - After an exciting and close game for the better part of 40 minutes, Knox fell in a battle against Monmouth College. Knox (0-6, 0-3 MWC) may have fell by 11 points, but they did carry a 4-point lead into halftime and were only down by one or two scores for the better part of the second half. However, bad luck from the three-point line hindered their ability to make a comeback and ultimately fell to their rival,
 
Blake Godbold had a phenomenal night finishing with a double-double of 20 points and 13 rebounds. Jonathan Damota also had a strong showing with 18 points, five rebounds and five assists. Deryk Ruple added 11 points and Marko Protic tallied nine points and seven rebounds.
