The Peacocks opened their final road trip of the season, being unable to upset the Illinois Springfield Prairie Stars in a 1-0 game.

Junior Isabelle Wagner recorded her first save of the game two minutes into the action, and senior Darci Faichnie added a shot on goal five minutes later. The Prairie Stars would later fire a shot over the goal in the ninth minute, prior to Wagner adding another save in the left corner of the net in the 11^th. Junior Nevaeh James barely missed the goal on a shot that went over the net in the 25^th minute and both teams remained tied 0-0 at the half.

The Prairie Stars jumped into the lead in the second half with a goal by Katelynn Ward in the 53^rd minute with Brooke Biffar picking up the assist. They added another shot down the middle that was saved by Wagner a minute later, before hitting the top post on their following shot. Wagner added two more saves in the 68^th and 74^th minutes to finish with five on the day, but the Peacocks were unable to add a second half shot on goal as the Prairie Stars claimed a 1-0 win.

Upper Iowa is currently the #9-seed in the GLVC with one playoff spot remaining. They share identical records with #8-seeded Truman State and #10-seeded Quincy who the Peacocks tied in both of their games. Truman State defeated Quincy earlier this year to currently claim the #8-seed based on head-to-head records, meaning the Peacocks will need to at least tie or win against McKendree, Sunday, Nov. 3 at noon in order to overtake the #8-seed in the GLVC Postseason Tournament.
