PEORIA — In the month since Bradley upended Loyola 54-53 in Chicago for its first Missouri Valley Conference victory this season, much has changed for the better for both teams.
The teams square off in the rematch Wednesday night at Carver Arena (7:05 p.m.).
For Loyola (11-13, 4-8), that loss was the third close league defeat in a row and prompted coach Porter Moser to dramatically alter his lineup, starting senior Jeff White of Manual High School along with three sophomores and benching the Ramblers’ top three scorers in the next game — a 51-41 win at Northern Iowa.
