"Whitewater came out hot today, and unfortunately we just weren't able to keep up" said head coach Kevwe Akpore. "We waited too long to score, and by that time we were too far behind. But now we've gotten it out of our system, and we are looking ahead for our big match-up against Ripon."

The Prairie Fire will play their last regular season game at home against Ripon on October 28th.
