It was all Kendall Davis for the Red Devils in the first half leading his team with 16 points.
The second half started off with the Red Devils going on a run to put them up 58-47. The Beavers showed fight as they would recover and reduce the deficit to six, but ultimately wasn't enough to stop Eureka.
Shea Feehan of the Red Devils had a remarkable second half performance scoring 30 points and ultimately holding off Blackburns strong second half effort.
Jake Maestranzi led the Beavers with 17 points.
The Beavers look to bounce back on Wednesday as they take on Iowa Wesleyan at 7:00pm in Mount Pleasant, Iowa.
