Quentin Jones with his 6th turnover. Trey Green offering support during timeout.

Josh Schertz not happy about sequence of SLU play and calls timeout leading by 15 to send in fresh players.

SLU leads 71-54 after the 3rd quarter. Bradley had two FGs in the quarter. SLU has made 1 of last 13 3s after starting 6-11.

No sign yet of 5-guard lineup with McCottry at center as Schertz suggested might be used.

Are we seeing SLU's nine-man rotation tonight that will be used when season starts? Will be interesting to see who is used in the extra period after the 40-minute game.

Twice tonight Brady Dunlap has chased down a loose ball rebound after a Bradley miss and thrown it off a Bradley player as he is falling out of bounds.

We've reached the point where there are just too many free throws bogging down a lopsided exhibition with SLU leading 84-62.

Well, the 4 quarters have ended with SLU leading 98-77. Waiting to see who plays the extra 10-minute period.

SLU goes with 4 freshmen and Trey Green in the 5th period. Officials are still adding to the score. However, the executive decision is that SLU wins 98-77.

SLU still wins after the extra period 118-106.

Big news out of SLU: Senior Kalu Anya will redshirt this season, giving him another year of eligibility after the departure of the team’s other big men.

Thanks for having me as the first guest on the podcast Will Saulsbery ... We talk SLU basketball for almost an hour!

Josh Schertz’s teams at SLU and Indiana State have finished 3rd, 1st and 1st in the country in 2-point field-goal percentage the last three seasons. The Billikens made 80% of their 2s in exhibition/scrimmages against Iowa and Bradley.

For the second time this season, SLU gets an early red card and Loyola-Chicago takes advantage with a goal in the final minute of he first half to lead the No. 16 Billikens 1-0.

Karim Pare's goal in the 84th minute allowed SLU to earn a 1-1 tie at Loyola-Chicago despite the 16th-ranked Billikens playing a man short for the final 73 minutes.

SLU men's soccer has canceled its nonconference game against Blackburn for next week.
