Billiken Hall of Famers Bob Ramsey and Earl Austin Jr. will call all the action on KMOX 1120 AM. The broadcast will also air on radio.com/kmox. 

The game will be televised on ESPN2. Mike Corey and Seth Greenberg are on the call.

The Billikens will be looking to snap a two-game skid and enter the game 11-5 overall and 4-4 in the A-10. Richmond has won two in a row and is 13-5 overall and 6-3 in conference play.

Here are five additional facts in advance of Friday's game against Richmond: 

1 // Jordan Goodwin is 12 points away from surpassing Ed Macauley for 12th place on SLU's all-time scoring list. 

2 // Hasahn French moved past Virgel Cobbin and Jack Mimlitz on the SLU career scoring list after a 21-point outing at VCU, and he needs seven more points to move into 25th place ahead of Bob Ferry. 

3 // Javonte Perkins currently ranks 11th in school history with a career scoring average of 15.7 ppg. It's the best career scoring average by a Billiken since the late Justin Love averaged 16.3 ppg in his career from 1999-2001.

4 // Goodwin is fourth in the NCAA with 12 double-doubles. His 35 career double-doubles rank third among all active NCAA Division I players.
