Game Notes |
SLUÂ | St. Bonaventure | Atlantic 10 |
Saint Louis concludes the regular season on Saturday night when it hosts St. Bonaventure at Chaifetz Arena. Game time is 7 p.m.
Â
The game is being produced for television by Stadium and will be carried on FOX Sports Midwest. Matt Martucci and former La Salle head coach Dr. John Giannini will call the action. The game will be streamed exclusively on WatchStadium.com with no fee. Please note that A-10 games airing on the league's national television partners (ESPN, NBCSN, CBS Sports Network, Stadium) WILL NOT be streamed on ESPN+. The game will air on 101 ESPN (101.1 FM) in St. Louis. Billiken Hall of Famers Bob Ramsey and Earl Austin Jr. have the call.
Saint Louis is 22-8 overall, 11-6 in the A-10. The Billikens are in a three-way tie for fourth in the A-10 with St. Bonaventure (19-11, 11-6 A-10) and Duquesne. Duquesne plays Friday against Richmond. SLU will be hoping for a Richmond win on Friday and a win against the Bonnies on Saturday for a chance at a top-four seed in the A-10 Championship. Â
Â
The top four teams in the A-10 receive a double bye into Friday's action at the 2020 A-10 Championship March 11-15 in Brooklyn, giving them a path of having to win three games in three days for the title. Seeds 5-10 begin the Championship on Thursday. Seeds 11-14 begin play on Wednesday.
Â
Here are five additional facts in advance of Saturday's game against St. Bonaventure:
Â
1 // The Billikens will recognize two players (
Jack Raboin and
Tay Weaver) and four senior managers (John Benben, Eddie Maruggi, Travis Turner, Blake Trucano) following Saturday's game for Senior Night.

2 // Jordan Goodwin and
Hasahn French are the only teammates in the NCAA averaging a double-double. Goodwin leads the team with 15.5 ppg and 10.4 rpg, while French averages 12.2 ppg and 10.1 rpg.
Â
3 // SLU has won four games in a row. Saint Louis has posted a double-digit margin of victory in all four games during its winning streak (+13.3 scoring margin). Additionally, the Billikens have shot 54.2 percent from the field and 40 percent from 3-point range during the stretch.
 Â
4 // French, who needs 12 points to reach 1,000 for his career, now owns the Billikens' career blocked shots record (199) and the single-season SLU mark (74).
Â
5 // Goodwin is second all-time at SLU with 180 career steals and is 13 away from surpassing Anthony Bonner's school record of 192.
