This is only the second meeting between the Minutemen and Salukis on the hardwood. Ths Salukis won the first one in a tournament in Puerto Rico in the late '90s. If memory serves me it was a two point win. I'm looking forward to the game tonight.

I could not stay up for the entire game...cold medicine is kicking my butt...but I stayed with it through the half...

I hoped that with an 11 point lead, the Minutemen could hang on...

Good win for SIU...and I hope a good learning tool for UMass...

Next up...Kansas...
