They lost two more MAAC road games last week. The Greyhounds (8-11, 3-6 MAAC) bowed out of a closely-fought game with Iona, 73-68, on Friday night and then were smothered by Marist, 85-59, on Sunday afternoon in Poughkeepsie, N.

Over 400 pompoms, highlighter-green T-shirts and enthusiastic young female athletes filled the stands of Reitz Arena on Sunday afternoon to help motivate the Loyola women's basketball team to a win over St. Peter's. It was a perfect ending to Women in Sports Day at Loyola College.

Last Thursday night, puffed-up dragon balloons, wavy streamers and brightly decorated masks were instruments of festivity as the Chinese celebrated their new year.
For them, it's the Year of the Rat, but in the world of college basketball, it's the Year of the Mid-Major … again.
