Loras led by two at the half, and extended the lead to around six points for most of the second half. The Beavers made a late push to get within four, but free throw shooting down the stretch allowed the Duhawks to maintain the lead and secure the victory.
Kyle White and Greg King led the team with ten points each. It was a balanced attack with four other players scoring seven or more points. The Duhawks stayed out of foul trouble, conceding just 11 free throws on the afternoon.
The Duhawks return to action on Tuesday night at the University of Dubuque in an 8:00 pm crosstown showdown.
SATURDAY'S GAMES WILL BE REBROADCAST ON MONDAY AT 1:00 PM THROUGH THE LORAS WEBSITE
