Postgame Report: Loyola at Milwaukee

Game #7 – Milwaukee 59, Loyola 41

Full Recap and Stats


Player Of The Game: Could go a couple of ways with this, but hard to overlook the job Kaylon Williams did in running the team tonight. He finished with 12 points, seven rebounds and seven assists. Let's just say we will keep the triple-double alert out for him because he will eventually get another one to add to his resume. Kyle Kelm was very good - making 6-of-7 to get to his 13 points as well.

Key Stats: The Panthers dominated the boards (42-20) which led to an impressive 16-2 edge in second-chance points and overwhelming 34-8 advantage in points in the paint.

News and Notes: The defense has been superb - holding their third opponent under 50 points - something done just four times in all of 2004-05 (the last time UWM held at least three under 50). Also, the fifth opponent under 60 to match the season tally from a year ago.

Up Next: UWM continues its two-game swing vs. the Chicago league schools when it welcomes UIC Saturday at the Cell at 1 p.m.
