Racers fall to UNI 74-67 at Belmont

The Murray State Racers fell 74-67 Monday night to the Northern Iowa Panthers at the Curb Event Center in Nashville.

Terence Harcum led the way for the Racers with five 3-point baskets and 19 points, while Nick Ellington was 8-of-12 from the field with 18 points and JaCobi Wood added 15 points.

As a team, the Racers hit 11 3-pointers. It was the fourth time this season in games against D-I opponents, that the Racers hit 10 or more from the 3-point line.

The game was played as a neutral floor contest after a recent storm knocked out the power to MSU's home, the CFSB Center, in Murray. It was announced after tonight's game that MSU's Wednesday scheduled home game with the Southern Illinois Salukis will be played in Carbondale at Banterra Center.

The Racers (13-14) fell to 7-9 in the Missouri Valley Conference.
