We won the first meeting of the year 86-75. We were paced by Devon Cooper (17), Josh Oduro (17) Malik Henry (15), Victor Bailey (14), and Ronald Polite (12). Not very often you get 5 guys with double figures like that. They were paced by Philip Alston (23), Ben Schwieger (17), and Braden Norris (12).
Box score: https://loyolaramblers.com/sports/mens-basketball/stats/2022-23/george-mason/boxscore/5961
Loyola is led by 6’6” Philip Alston (14.6 ppg & 5.7 reb) and 6’0” Braden Norris (10.4 ppg). Their starting lineup has varied over the course of the season with 8 guys having started at least 3 times. 6’9” Bryce Golden (4.7 ppg), 6’7” Ben Schwieger (9.4 ppg), and 6’3” Jalen Quinn (2.9 ppg) have rounded out the starting lineup of late.
Loyola averages 66.7 points per game while giving up 72.1. The Ramblers shoot 46.9% from the floor and 33.4% from 3. Opponents are shooting 45.1% from the field and 33.7% from 3. The Ramblers shoot 68.2% from the free throw line. They have been out rebounded opponents by .6 boards per game. They average 16.3 turnovers per contest.
The game is on USA.
My prediction: They have had a tough time with their transition to the A10 but I still don’t like our road record. We still only have 1 true road win. We make it 2 as GMU pulls out a close one. GMU 72 — Loyola Chicago 71.
