Shorthanded again because of illness and injury, Moniteau fell to Saegertown, 66-52, in the consolation game of the Mercer tourney.

Chasen Delarosa-Rugg scored 21 points to lead the Warriors, who were without starters Andrew Zepeda and David Dessicino against the Panthers.

Aydan Jackson added 11 for Moniteau.
