Drew Valentine did not like what a fan said to him last time in Peoria. He will make an unexpected return this week.

Excited about this rivalry being reignited when I thought Loyola basketball was over for the season.

Should be a good game, drawing loyola is less than ideal, yall have played well since the calneder turned over and if there is any program in the nit that knows to not take the valleys 3rd best team lightly it would be loyola. Itll be a great NIT matchup.

Bradley is up 36-19 at half. Loyola couldn’t make a damn thing - partly due to Bradley’s defense. Malevy Leons is dominating the game on defense. Really fun half of basketball.

Bradley was able to stretch the lead back out in the final few minutes to win it by a dozen, 74-62.

Four players in double figures for the Braves. Leons with a double-double: 14 points, 10 boards, five blocks

Loyola made a run but Bradley never trailed. Bradley has won 16 games in a row against teams from Illinois.

Nice win by Bradley, their suffocating defense had Loyola playing some of their worst basketball I’ve seen all season. They had a nice comeback in the second half but you can’t expect to win when you miss your free throws. I look forward to the rematch one day.
