Despite the defeat, Chase saw an underclassman step up: Humberto Rincon scored eight points along with five rebounds. As a matter of fact, that's the most points Rincon has scored all season.
Fairfield pushed their record up to 4-3 with that victory, which was their third straight on the road.

Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Fairfield will take on LaCrosse at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

As for Chase, they will look to defend their home court on Friday against Ellinwood at 8:00 p.m. Ellinwood presents a significant challenge as they come into the match much higher ranked than Chase in Kansas (Ellinwood is ranked 83rd, while Chase is ranked 351st).
