ST. LOUIS – Saint Louis University's Department of Athletics is proud to welcome more than 40 men's basketball alumni to Sunday's men's basketball game against La Salle at Chaifetz Arena. All alumni, including 13 members of the Billikens' All-Century Team, will be recognized at halftime. The game tips at 1:30 p.m.
“Sunday will be a special day as we welcome back many former student-athletes who helped shape our men's basketball program into what it is today,” SLU Director of Athletics Chris May said. “We are especially proud to recognize members of our All-Century Team, selected by the fans. All were successful student-athletes who continue to be leaders in their communities. Sunday's halftime ceremony will surely be a trip down memory lane for our fans as we honor the history and heritage of our program and the great players who were part of it.”
The Billiken All-Century Team, which was announced in January, features 16 players and three coaches. They were selected by fans via balloting at SLU men's basketball home games as well as online. You can view the team here.
