The Cyclones struggled on the road in a tough loss to Rock Valley College.

It took the entire first half before the Cyclones found their stride as they went down 50-30 at halftime. They stepped it up in the second half, scoring as much as the Golden Eagles, but it wasn't enough to counter the earlier deficit.

Enari Thomas led the offense with 19 points followed by Luis Acevedo with 18 and Deven Jiles with 16. Davion Lawrence collected seven boards, and David Reyes had four assists.
