The Loyola men’s basketball team (19-12, 12-6) secured its second consecutive Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) regular season title with an 81-68 victory over Bradley University at a sold-out Gentile Arena Saturday night.
The Ramblers share the top spot with Drake University, but will be the No. 1 seed at the MVC Tournament for the second straight year because they swept their two regular season matchups with the Bulldogs. Drake, which was picked to finish ninth in the MVC preseason poll, will be the No. 2 seed.
“[This season’s] been a rollercoaster ride,” Loyola redshirt senior guard Clayton Custer said after the game.
