DEKALB, Ill. (WTVO/WQRF)–The NIU 4A Super-Sectional left the Auburn Knights feeling anything but super. On this night they were no match for Illinois’ #1 ranked Class 4A team Lisle Benet Academy. The Knights lost to the Redwings 67-33.
Rakim Chaney knocked down a three-point shot right off the bat for Auburn, but it was pretty much all downhill from there.

Most importantly the Redwings didn’t let the Knights turn the game into a track meet.
