After going 2-2 in non-conference action, the Loyola women’s basketball team is scheduled to open Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) play Jan. 1 and 2 against Indiana State University at Gentile Arena.
Coming into the year, this matchup was projected to be one of the closest in the MVC. Loyola was picked to finish eighth out of 10 teams in the MVC preseason poll, while the Sycamores were tabbed to finish ninth. The two teams were separated by just four points — the lowest margin between any two teams in the poll.
Indiana State leads the all-time series with 11 wins against Loyola and six losses.
