A 30-point effort from Scott Hunter wasn't enough to lead the team to victory, with the Hawks falling to the competition leaders 88-85 in a tense affair. The loss was Illawarra's fourth of the season.
With just five rounds remaining, the Hawks are determined to return to form against the last-placed Dubbo at the Snakepit on Saturday night. Illawarra sit in fourth position, though just one win behind second-placed Canberra.
The clash will form the third act of a triple-header at the Snakepit, with the two Hawks men's youth league sides taking on Blacktown on Saturday afternoon.
