Northwest Missouri State's season came to a close Thursday afternoon with an 80-52 loss to Emporia State in the MIAA Tournament Quarterfinals in Kansas City.

The Bearcats (12-18) trailed 21-9 at the end of the first quarter, and couldn't close the gap in the final three quarters.

Paityn Rau led Northwest with 12 points and seven rebounds.

Seniors Erika Schlosser and Kendey Eaton each scored eight points apiece.
