The first team the Pokes will face in the Myrtle Beach Invitational tournament on Thursday @ noon MST will be the St. Louis Univ. Billikens.
As I said earlier the Billikens are 3-0 at this point in the new season., having played all of their games at home so far:
1st game was vs Southern Indiana which the Billikens won, 75-63 and they were led by a 6'-5" Sr. F., Terrance Hargrove who had 27 pts.
2nd game was vs Lincoln (MO) which the Billikens won, 102-66 and they were led by a 6'-3" Jr. G., Sincere Parker who had 20 pts.
3rd game was vs Illinois State which the Billikens won, 80-71 and they were led by a 6' -5" Jr. G., Gibson Jimerson who had 20 pts.
All of these scoring totals by their top scorer in each of the games were their career highs. Also noticed that the Billikens appeared to start off fast as looking at the box scores they led at halftime in each of their games. Illinois State actually outscored the Billikens in the 2nd half of their game as the Billikens held the Red Birds off to win the game.
So this game will be the 1st for both Wyoming and St. Louis away from the confines of their home courts. The game will be shown on ESPN 2.
