St. Joe’s plays at home against Loyola Chicago on Saturday the 21st at noon. I’ll update after that game.
First meeting this year:
We beat St. Joe’s 60-52 in front of a raucous Homecoming crowd of 7,335 at EBA on Saturday, February 7. Jahari Long (20) and Riley Allenspach (13) led us in scoring. Jaiden Glover-Toscano (14), Derek Simpson (13), and Austin Williford (11) paced the Hawks. Glover-Toscano had all 14 of his points in the first half. Shutting him down in the second was the key to the game. We held them to just 30.8% from the field and 27% from deep. It was without a doubt one of our better defensive efforts on the year.

Thoughts: St. Joe’s is currently tied for 4th place so this is a big game on all counts.
If we lose we’re rapidly fading out of the top 4. An 8-1 start is beginning to look like a total collapse to 9-9. Damn I hate saying that but we’re lost right now.
