The Hawks’ (1-10-2, 1-4-1) lone goal was scored when Griffin Tomas dribbled down the left side of the box and played a low ball across the box, where Liam McGregor battled a defender and tapped it in.
Fairfield went back ahead by two goals in the 78th minute, as a through ball got behind the Monmouth defense into the 18, where the Stags finished inside the left post.
