After a too-close-for-comfort victory today over Dowling, the Lions will be back on the court tomorrow morning to take on Rider. The game tips off at 9am PT.
This morning, LMU edged out a seven-point victory over the D-II Dowling College to bring its record to 2-2 on the young season. The Lions were given a season-high 16 points and seven rebounds from redshirt sophomore Ashley Hamilton who went 4-4 from the field and 8-9 from the charity stripe. Drew Viney, who had led the Lions in scoring in every other game this season, chipped in 15 points and a team-high eight boards.
The Lions were helped out by a Dowling team that went just 9-21 from the free throw line.
Tomorrow, the Lions face what may be their toughest task yet this season, as they will take on a Rider team that that has already beat USC and TCU. The Broncs are riding a three-game winning streak, and currently sit on a 3-1 season record.
Rider is led by senior Justin Robinson, who is averaging over 19 points per game.
The game can be heard live on KXLU 88.9 FM.
