Kristin Herndon was a bright spot in Knox College’s 72-42 loss to the University of Chicago Friday. She had 14 points and 8 boards, hanging with one of the best teams in the country.
Only ranked 14th in the country despite being unbeaten, the Maroons were seemingly playing with a chip on their shoulder. Knox was outscored 22-6 in the first and 26-10 to trail 48-16 at the half. The Prairie Fire turned around and played one of their best quarters of the year in the third, outscoring the Maroons 13-6 in the third quarter.
Ice cold shooting led to Knox’s downfall as they shot 19 for 63 from the field, including 1 for 17 from downtown. The turnovers were even. Normally a good rebounding team and frequently getting 50 a night, Knox was outrebounded 44-32. The Maroons also outscored Knox 37-13 from the bench.
