"We had some tough conditions today with it being as hot as it's been all year and some crazy wind at times, but we got the job done," said head coach Tim McLane.  

We needed to show up and perform up to our abilities today, and for the most part, we did just that.  Now we have to be able to carry that over to tomorrow and get the job done again."

Emporia State drops to 5-12, 1-6 MIAA with the loss. 

The RiverHawks close out its regular season on Saturday at noon with Newman.  A win would move them to the four seed in the upcoming MIAA Tournament next week.
