Rider's struggles have been on the offensive end. During this losing streak, it has failed to score 60 points in each of the three games.
Danny Stewart shook off a sore knee to score 22 points against Fairfield, but the Broncs were battered down low by Maurice Barrow, who finished with a career-high 25 points and 10 rebounds.
They also reverted to turning the ball over, coughing it up 17 times.
