Last Saturday, the Skyhawks came up short against the Dolphins and fell 75-67.
Meanwhile, the Red Flash also suffered a loss in their last game, but this one to the Warriors by a score of 71-60. The defeat unfortunately continues a disappointing trend for St. Francis in their matchups with the Warriors: they've now lost five in a row.
The Skyhawks dropped their record down to 3-25 with that defeat, which was their 21st straight on the road dating back to last season.
